The SGGX microflake distribution
2015
ACM Transactions on Graphics
Bottom-right: visualization of the voxel structure at the matching resolutions. We use the SGGX microflake distribution to represent volumetric anisotropic materials. ...
Finally, we use the idea of sampling the distribution of visible normals to design a perfect importance sampling technique for our SGGX microflake phase functions. ...
Acknowledgements The authors wish to thank Fabrice Neyret for his valuable advice on ellipsoidal distributions and for sharing his vision of multi-scale representations. ...

SpongeCake: A Layered Microflake Surface Appearance Model
[article]
2021
arXiv
pre-print
Despite the absence of layer interfaces, we demonstrate that many common material effects can be achieved with layers of SGGX microflake and other volumes with appropriate parameters. ...
We use a parameter mapping neural network to find the parameters of the newly added lobes to closely approximate the multiple scattering effect. ...
The reduced phase function is also reciprocal in the usual sense: ( → ) =ˆ( → ). (6)
SGGX microflakes While the above can work with any microflake distribution, in our results we use the SGGX microflake ...

A new microflake model with microscopic self-shadowing for accurate volume downsampling
2018
Computer graphics forum (Print)
We provide an anisotropic self-shadowing function and microflake distributions for which the scattering coefficients and the phase functions of our model have closed-form expressions. ...
We introduce a new microflake model whose additional parameters characterize self-shadowing effects at a microscopic scale. ...
[HDCD15] have introduced the SGGX distribution. ...

Hybrid mesh-volume LoDs for all-scale pre-filtering of complex 3D assets
2017
Computer graphics forum (Print)
We simplify these surfaces with edge collapses and we provide a method for pre-filtering their normal distributions and albedos. ...
To approximate microscopic details, we use a heterogeneous microflake participating medium and we introduce a new artifact-free voxelization algorithm that preserves local occlusion. ...
We also thank Edson for his sailing vessel 3D model and Olivier Ffrench † for the mossy stone wall. ...

Approximations for the distribution of microflake normals
2017
The Visual Computer
In this paper, we discuss three different methods for approximating the distribution of normals of the microflakes, which is needed to compute extinction, inscattering of attenuated direct illumination ...
Specifically, we consider A) k-means approximation with k weighted representatives, B) expansion in spherical harmonics, and C) the distribution of the normals of a specific ellipsoid. ...

A radiative transfer framework for spatially-correlated materials
2018
ACM Transactions on Graphics
distributions of scatterers. ...
Most previous works in graphics have ignored this, assuming uncorrelated media with a uniform, random local distribution of particles. ...
Later, Heitz et al. [2015] further extended this model with the SGGX microflakes distribution. ...

Foundations for 3D Machine Knitting
2022
I classify the space of shapes that can be constructed with industrial knitting machines. I present a new data-structure to represent 3D shapes as knitting programs. ...
In this thesis, I lay out foundational tools for machine knitting that allow users to think about what they want to create in terms of 3D shapes instead of how the machine constructs by showing that programming ...
