Quasi-monte Carlo Methods in Computer Graphics, Part I: the Qmc-buuer

چکیده
Monte Carlo integration is often used for antialiasing in rendering processes. Due to low sampling rates only expected error estimates can be stated, and the variance can be high. In this article quasi-Monte Carlo methods are presented, achieving a guaranteed upper error bound and a convergence rate essentially as fast as usual Monte Carlo.

Chapter 1 Quasi - Monte Carlo Sampling
In Monte Carlo (MC) sampling the sample averages of random quantities are used to estimate the corresponding expectations. The justification is through the law of large numbers. In quasi-Monte Carlo (QMC) sampling we are able to get a law of large numbers with deterministic inputs instead of random ones. Naturally we seek deterministic inputs that make the answer converge as quickly as possible...

متن کاملLocal Quasi-Monte Carlo Exploration
In physically-based image synthesis, the path space of light transport paths is usually explored by stochastic sampling. The two main families of algorithms are Monte Carlo/quasi-Monte Carlo sampling and Markov chain Monte Carlo. While the former is known for good uniform discovery of important regions, the latter facilitates efficient exploration of local effects. We introduce a hybrid samplin...

متن کاملSpherical Fibonacci Point Sets for Illumination Integrals
Quasi-Monte Carlo (QMC) methods exhibit a faster convergence rate than that of classic Monte Carlo methods. This feature has made QMC prevalent in image synthesis, where it is frequently used for approximating the value of spherical integrals (e.g., illumination integral). The common approach for generating QMC sampling patterns for spherical integration is to resort to unit square low discrepa...
