چکیده

Inverse rendering problems usually represent extremely complex and costly processes, but their importance in many research areas is well known. In particular, they are of extreme importance in lighting engineering, where potentially costly mistakes usually make it unfeasible to test design decisions on a model. In this survey we present the main ideas behind these kinds of problems, characterize them, and summarize work developed in the area, revealing problems that remain unsolved and possible areas of further research.

Inverse Rendering of Polished Materials under Constant Complex Uncontrolled Illumination

Inverse rendering infers realistic descriptions of illumination and material properties from photographs. However, the applicability of state of the art inverse rendering algorithms in real world scenarios is currently limited by the many assumptions made, eg. controlled or simple illumination. In this paper we concentrate on estimating polished materials and describe an inverse rendering syste...

Massively parallel inverse rendering using Multi-objective Particle Swarm Optimization

We present a novel GPU-accelerated per-pixel inverse rendering optimization algorithm based on Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO). Our algorithm estimates the per-pixel scene attributes—including reflectance properties—of a 3D model, and is fast enough to do in situ visualization of the optimization in real-time. The algorithm’s high parallel efficiency is demonstrated through our GPU/GLSL shade...

Ill-Posed and Linear Inverse Problems

In this paper ill-posed linear inverse problems that arises in many applications is considered. The instability of special kind of these problems and it's relation to the kernel, is described. For finding a stable solution to these problems we need some kind of regularization that is presented. The results have been applied for a singular equation.

NURBS-based Inverse Reflector Design

Commonly used direct rendering techniques simulate light transport for a complete scene, specified in terms of light sources, geometry, materials, participating media, etc. On the other hand, inverse rendering problems take as input a desired light distribution and try to find the unknown parts of the scene needed to get such light field. The latter kind, where inverse reflector design is inclu...

The uniqueness theorem for inverse nodal problems with a chemical potential

In this paper, an inverse nodal problem for a second-order differential equation having a chemical potential on a finite interval is investigated. First, we estimate the nodal points and nodal lengths of differential operator. Then, we show that the potential can be uniquely determined by a dense set of nodes of the eigenfunctions.
