Mostly relating to global illumination algorithms and monte carlo light tracing.

Eric Veach and Leonidas J. Guibas describes a method for solving the light transport problem that performs especially well on problems that are usually considered difficult, e.g. those involving bright indirect light, small geometric holes, or glossy ...

Papers relating to Character Animation, Implicit and Skeletal Modeling, Implicit Surface Polygonization, Convolution Surfaces and Transformations and Geometry.

An implementation in java of Perlin's 2002 SIGGRAPH paper (available in PDF format) describing a improved noise generating function.

A project trying to capture the surface properties of real-life objects that cannot be effectively captured by any existing lighting models (such as Phong).

A list of publications mainly about Photon Mapping, Global Illumination and rendering natural phenomenon such as fire, skin and smoke.

Indexes for online version of papers from SIGGRAPH and various other conferences.

Splatting is a fast volume rendering algorithm which achieves its speed by projecting voxels in the form of pre-integrated interpolation kernels, or splats. By Klaus Mueller and Roger Crawfis.

Presents two efficient image-based approaches for computation and display of high-quality soft shadows from area light sources: Layered attenuation maps and coherence-based raytracing. Authors: Maneesh Agrawala, Ravi Ramamoorthi, Alan Heirich and Laur...
