Slang. d: Fast, modular and differentiable shader programming

SP Bangaru, L Wu, TM Li, J Munkberg… - ACM Transactions on …, 2023 - dl.acm.org
We introduce SLANG. D, an extension to the Slang shading language that incorporates first-
class automatic differentiation support. The new shading language allows us to transform a …

Differentiable Rendering of Parametric Geometry

M Worchel, M Alexa - ACM Transactions on Graphics (TOG), 2023 - dl.acm.org
We propose an efficient method for differentiable rendering of parametric surfaces and
curves, which enables their use in inverse graphics problems. Our central observation is that …

Dr. Hair: Reconstructing Scalp-Connected Hair Strands without Pre-Training via Differentiable Rendering of Line Segments

Y Takimoto, H Takehara, H Sato… - Proceedings of the …, 2024 - openaccess.thecvf.com
In the film and gaming industries achieving a realistic hair appearance typically involves the
use of strands originating from the scalp. However reconstructing these strands from …

Differentiable Shadow Map** for Efficient Inverse Graphics

M Worchel, M Alexa - … of the IEEE/CVF Conference on …, 2023 - openaccess.thecvf.com
We show how shadows can be efficiently generated in differentiable rendering of triangle
meshes. Our central observation is that pre-filtered shadow map**, a technique for …
