Instead of rendering the sequence frame by frame using volumetric path tracing (VPT), our method (MVPT) jointly renders the sequence at once reusing some computation during the simulation. We observe a significant variance reduction at equal time when rendering the whole sequence -or reach a desired quality at lower time. In addition the correlation of reused paths between nearby frames almost makes the flickering caused by dissimilar random sampling dissapear. This makes the sequences pleasier to the eye even at low sample count.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
