Real‐time by‐example texture synthesis and filtering using local statistics exchange
Abstract Real‐time by‐example texture synthesis is used in interactive virtual worlds to generate the appearance of an unbounded surface from an exemplar texture with as few repetitions as possible. Currently, leading real‐time methods rely on a tiling and blending scheme which is known to synthesize well texture patterns with little spatial ...

Grassland albedo as a nature-based climate prospect: the role of growth form and grazing
Nature-based solutions for mitigating climate change focus largely on land management to reduce carbon emissions and enhance carbon sequestration. Tree planting, commonly advocated for carbon offset, threatens grassland biodiversity and may induce ...

Abstract Correlation‐based rendering techniques continue to advance, and efficiently exploiting correlations between pixel estimates has become increasingly important. The deep combiner framework [BHHM20] allows us to fuse independent and correlated pixel estimates but focuses solely on spatial correlations.

High‐Gloss SVBRDF Capture Using Bounce Light
Abstract Reflectance capture aims at the visual reproduction of an object under varying illumination. Past works differ substantially in their experimental overhead, from single‐ or few‐image approaches, that employ significant (often learned) priors at the expense of biased reconstructions, to more accurate approaches that tend to be time‐consuming ...

Layer3D: A 3D Layered Representation for Multiview Vector Graphics
Abstract We present Layer3D, a novel 3D neural representation that models objects as collections of decomposable neural implicit primitives. These primitives enable the generation of layered images with consistent correspondences across viewpoints, establishing a flexible framework for multiview vector graphics decomposition.

As snowlines retreat, the bare ice of Central Asian glaciers is increasingly exposed to short-wave radiation and high temperatures. The importance of bare-ice albedo for glacier melt rates is thus rising. Little is known about the variability of bare-ice

NAADF: Globally Illuminated Voxel Worlds Accelerated with Nested Axis‐Aligned Distance Fields
Abstract Achieving realistic rendering of 3D scenes in real time using path tracing is challenging due to the high sample count required, with ray tracing as the bottleneck. Focusing on voxels as a geometry representation offers significant opportunities for optimizations, especially for tracing the rays, but also for computing the samples.

Earth's albedo is symmetric between the northern and southern hemispheres (NH and SH, respectively) because SH clouds compensate for higher NH clear‐sky albedo, a feature that climate models have difficulty capturing.

This study models real‐life UVB and UVA exposure across latitudes and seasons using an extended Diffey framework with behavioural corrections. Findings reveal predictable dose patterns and support pragmatic SPF and UVA‐PF caps, offering a quantitative basis for realistic photoprotection and regulatory discussion.

Abstract Remote spectroscopy is used to characterize the mineralogy and infer the history of planetary bodies. Carbonaceous asteroids, such as B‐type (101955) Bennu, represent the earliest stages of planet formation. B types have a blue (negative) spectral slope and comprise <5% of asteroids.
