For the next STORM seminar, Nessim Dahmani will give a presentation titled : Render graph implementation in Radium-EngineAbstractRadium-Engine is a research engine used by various types of people. Having a monolithic renderer presents the disadvantage to make it difficult to modify, especially if computer graphics and C++ are not your domain, so the needs of a node-based renderer system were important to allow anyone to define their own renderer quickly and easily.…

For the next STORM seminar, Mégane Bati will give a presentation titled : Design inverse de l’apparence de matériaux multicouchesAbstractLes matériaux multicouches permettent une apparence variée, telle que les feuilles, les céramiques émaillées ou les peintures de voitures. Des modèles permettent de prédire leur apparence à partir des paramètres physiques des différentes couches, par exemple les rugosités des interfaces, les indices de réfraction des milieux ou encore l’absorption dans les couches.…

For the next STORM seminar, Pierre Mézières will give a presentation titled : Efficient Spherical Harmonics shadingAbstractIn a first part, I will present the short paper I had the pleasure to present at the Siggraph Asia 2021 conference. In a second part, I will talk about efficient and robust projection on spherical Harmonics and the resulting research tracks and applications in rendering.…

For the next STORM seminar, Mathias Paulin will give a presentation titled : Differentiable rendering – Reading and discussionAbstractDifferentiable rendering is a very hot topic of research nowadays. If seminal works have given interest on some not-so-simple rendering sub-problems (from radiosity form-factors in the 1990’s to bsdf roughness dependencies en the 2010’s), computing partial derivatives of light transport operators in the general case is still an open problem that exhibits numerous methodological and practical difficulties.…

For the next STORM seminar, Loïc Barthe will give a presentation titled : From isotropic blending to real-time skinningAbstractStarting from the main limitations of field function blending that lead to their disinterest in geometric modeling in the early 2000’s, we will see how a deeper analysis of the geometrical interpretation of their composition/assembly operators allows us to solve all these limitations.…

For the next STORM seminar, Steve McLaughlin will give a presentation titled : Computational Imaging in Disordered Media

Abstract

Single-photon lidar has emerged as a prime candidate technology for depth imaging through challenging environments. Until now, a major limitation has been the significant amount of time required for the analysis of the recorded data.…

For the next STORM seminar, Nicolas Barroso will present his JFIG article : Automatic Intermediate Frames for Stroke-based Animation

AbstractComputer aided animation usually focus on cartoon stylized rendering, or is built from an automatic process as 3D animations stylization, loosing the painterly look and feel of hand made animation. We propose to simplify the creation of stroke-based animations: from a set of key frames, our methods automatically generates intermediate frames with coherent motion.…

For the next STORM seminar, Gauthier Bouyjou will give a presentation titled : Post FX Shadow Layers

AbstractI will present you my one year works on the post fx shadow layers project allowing the calculation of shadow layers in the Arnold rendering software.

This seminar will take place on Wednesday 10/11 at 12:30pm in room 001 at IRIT.…

For the next STORM seminar, David Vanderhaeghe propose a reading group about the paper: Large Steps in Inverse Rendering of GeometryYou are invited to read this paper to discuss it during the seminar.

This seminar will take place on Friday 29/10 at 12:30pm in room Salle des Thèses at IRIT.…

For the next STORM seminar, Hugo Rens will give a presentation titled : Precomputation and realtime rendering of radiance transfer in participating media

AbstractIn the next seminar, I’ll present (for the third time !) the method which I’m working on, that is, the precomputation of radiative transfer that occurs in a volume.…
