Tested Nvidia Neural Radiance Cache in my path tracer. This is a very promising tech but I don't think I can use it now - it's just not robust and has too many hallucinations with color and intensity especially with high brightness and maxExpectedAverageRadianceValue doesn't help much.

Oh cool, RGB9E5 render target format is coming to PC GPUs? I know that Apple GPUs could render to it for a number of years by now, nice to see wider adoption. Curious to see which GPUs exactly can do it. https://devblogs.microsoft.com/directx/agility-sdk-1-614-0/

Hey Graphics Folks, ever wonder who the “Phong” was that invented Phong shading?

Turns out his last name wasn’t Phong, that online picture of him isn't even him, and his death is connected to the U.S. military’s use of chemical weapons during the Vietnam War.

Dr. Oh, Dr. Tran, and I wrote about it here:

https://phanpy.social is a pretty incredible Mastodon client. Entirely web based, looks great on mobile and desktop, you can configure your shortcuts that appear above or below the river of news.

Some screenshots from my own account: good notifications page, different kinds of toots get a different status, plus Boosts are shown in their own carousel.

I've heard one developer made all this, it's pretty incredible.

Boosts are rolled up into a carousel of toots you can view with sideways scrolling
Threads are shown grouped together and single posts from threads are indicated as such.

I am excited to finally share our recent paper "Filtering After Shading With Stochastic Texture Filtering" (with @mattpharr @marcosalvi and Marcos Fajardo), published at ACM I3D'24 / PACM CGIT, where we won the best paper award! 1/N

For folks that know me as "the blue noise guy", I've put together a 50 minute video that talks about many of the things I've learned in my ~decade long dive into noise and related topics - up to and including our latest paper published days ago at I3D.
I hope you enjoy it!

A slide showing how random numbers which are positively correlated on the screen give correlated resulting renders, uncorrelated random numbers give uncorrelated renders, and negative correlation random numbers give negatively correlated renders. Negatively correlated renders have the best perceptual quality, despite all three having the same actual error.

For my birthday, I'd really like it if my beloved fedi could spread word far and wide of Kitsune Tails. It's a platformer with a heartwarming story featuring queer main characters and personal discoveries in classic SMB3 style. You can find trailer, screenshots, and wishlist links here: https://kitsunegames.com/kitsunetails

It's coming out this year and the team and I have been working hard on it for several years now. Most of the team is queer in some form so by boosting you'd not only be making me happy on my birthday, but supporting a bunch of queer creators making queer art as well

yuzu kitsune tails, a purple haired fox girl, picks up samurai armor in a tower that's rapidly filling with lava. she jumps away from the rising lava and sticks her spear in the wall, doing a dashing twirl to get on top of it. she walks off the spear and into a new scene, fighting a ghost fox with armor and spear. it stabs and she jumps over, but is caught by a follow up stab. the ghost fox over extends and its ghostly powers wane, giving yuzu a chance to bop on its head

e-on software: VUE and Plantfactory are now available free of charge and were considered the industry standard for creating environments and vegetation years ago. However, the products are no longer being developed and updates are no longer provided. I always found VUE too slow and ponderous, but those who enjoyed working with it can now do so for free.

Meme image "distracted boyfriend". A guy holds hand with his girlfriend but looks toward another woman which his girlfriend does not like. I put the Steam-Logo on top of the head of the girlfriend with the words "steam pile of shame" and my game logo on top of the head of the other women and below the words "finishing my short, cute, rewarding game."

Not many papers are so visually satisfying and beautiful as this one, using Diffusion generative model to create smoothly interpolated, spatially varying, correlated noise patterns of different classes: https://armanmaesumi.github.io/onenoise/

I wonder if anybody tried to use FXAA before doing display mapping BUT by still applying and reverting a curve ? 🤔

Aka:
1 - Switch from HDR to SDR
2 - Apply FXAA
3 - Switch back from SDR to HDR
4 - Apply regular post-process stuff
