    • Accurately Predicting the Reflectance of Rough Metal Surfaces From One-Dimensional Surface Profile Measurements 

      Zhu, Yuanchen (2018-09-25)
      This thesis investigates the problem of using surface microgeometry measurements to predict the reflectance of rough metal surfaces. Because light cannot penetrate much into metals, the observable reflectance of a metal ...

    • A Data-Driven Reflectance Model 

      Matusik, Wojciech; Pfister, Hanspeter; Brand, Matt; McMillan, Leonard (Association for Computing Machinery, 2003)
      We present a generative model for isotropic bidirectional reflectance distribution functions (BRDFs) based on acquired reflectance data. Instead of using analytical reflectance models, we represent each BRDF as a dense set ...

    • Inverse Shade Trees for Non-Parametric Material Representation and Editing 

      Lawrence, Jason; Ben-Artzi, Aner; DeCoro, Christopher; Matusik, Wojciech; Pfister, Hanspeter; Ramamoorthi, Ravi; Rusinkiewicz, Szymon (Association for Computing Machinery, 2006)
      Recent progress in the measurement of surface reflectance has created a demand for non-parametric appearance representations that are accurate, compact, and easy to use for rendering. Another crucial goal, which has so far ...
