Seminar 31/03 – Mégane Bati – The Walk on Sphere algorithm in Graphics and its extensions

For the next STORM seminar, Mégane Bati will give a presentation titled: The Walk on Sphere algorithm in Graphics and its extensions

Abstract: Monte-Carlo is a standard method to simulate the light transport in a scene by numerically solving the Radiative Transfer Equation.
This method can be more widely applied to solve advection-diffusion equations, as recently introduced in Graphics by Sawhney and Crane [2020].
The most simplified form of the physical model can be solved by the Walk on Sphere algorithm [Muller 1956] that I will present, as well as its recent extensions in Graphics to consider a more complex physical model.
