Algorithmic mirror

Materials, such as snow, sand, metallic paints, rough plastics, and metals, often exhibit small-scale phenomena observed as bright sparkling or glittering surface features. These features become more pronounced under narrow-angle illumination and vary ...

3D Gaussian Splatting showcases notable advancements in photo-realistic and real-time novel view synthesis. However, it faces challenges in modeling mirror reflections, which exhibit substantial appearance variations from different viewpoints. To ...

Recently, Neural Radiance Fields (NeRF) has exhibited significant success in novel view synthesis, surface reconstruction, etc. However, since no physical reflection is considered in its rendering pipeline, NeRF mistakes the reflection in the mirror as a ...
