Image-based Bidirectional Scene Reprojection - Picture

Image-based Bidirectional Scene Reprojection


We introduce a general purpose method for increasing the frame rate of real-time rendering applications by reconstructing intermediate frames from a pair of consecutive rendered frames.

Genetic Programming for Shader Simplification


This paper presents a genetic programming framework for automatic pixel shader simplification and optimization. Our approach is powerful, producing shaders that are more computationally efficient and more visually faithful than previous work. Our approach is also general, supporting multi-pass shaders and perceptual-based error metrics.

An Efficient Alias-free Shadow Algorithm for Opaque and Transparent Objects using per-triangle Shadow Volumes - Picture

An Efficient Alias-free Shadow Algorithm for Opaque and Transparent Objects using per-triangle Shadow Volumes


This paper presents a novel method for pixel-accurate shadows from point light-sources in real-time. It efficiently handles triangle soups, and supports textured and colored semi-transparent shadow-casters. It has a very small memory footprint and combines many of the strengths of shadow maps and shadow volumes.
