Improving Urban Climate Adaptation Modeling in the Community Earth System Model (CESM) Through Transient Urban Surface Albedo Representation

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems
Increasing the albedo of urban surfaces, through strategies like white roof installations, has emerged as a promising approach for urban climate adaptation.

PBR‐Inspired Controllable Diffusion for Image Generation

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite recent advances in text‐to‐image generation, controlling geometric layout and PBR material properties in synthesized scenes remains challenging. We present a pipeline that first produces a G‐buffer (albedo, normals, depth, roughness, shading, and metallic) from a text prompt and then renders a final image through a PBR‐inspired branch ...

A Real‐Time Multi‐Scale Neural Representation for Complex Surface Reflectance

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Recent machine learning methods have significantly advanced the state of the art in the classic problem of representing surface appearance over angle, space, and scale. The models tend, however, to be relatively heavy compared to traditional fixed‐function representations, making real‐time application challenging.

TABI: Tight and Balanced Interactive Atlas Packing

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Atlas packing is a key step in many computer graphics applications. Packing algorithms seek to arrange a set of charts within a fixed‐size atlas with as little downscaling as possible. Many packing applications such as content creation tools, dynamic atlas generation for video games, and texture space shading require on‐the‐fly interactive ...

Neural Local Inter‐reflection Modeling for Garment Fold Rendering

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Realistic garment rendering requires simulating complex multi‐bounce light paths within intricate fold geometries. In these regions, conventional path tracing is computationally expensive as light becomes trapped, necessitating high bounce counts for convergence.

Real‐time by‐example texture synthesis and filtering using local statistics exchange

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
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

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters
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 ...

Deep Residual Combiner: A Learned Fusion of Spatial, Temporal, and Multiscale Correlated Pixel Estimates

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
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.
