Neural Local Inter‐reflection Modeling for Garment Fold Rendering
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.

Dynamic Wave Trains: A Procedural Approach to Spatially Varying Ocean Synthesis
In this paper, we present a high performance procedural model capable of synthesizing and rendering a virtually infinite ocean. Our method exhibits spatial variations as the orientations, speed and choppiness of the waves is parametrized for each frequencies and each point in space. The provided visual abstract exhibits a sunset rendering of a large 40

ABSTRACT We examine whether and how mandatory non‐financial disclosure affects corporate cash holdings. Using a panel data set of Chinese A‐share listed firms from 2005 to 2012 and exploiting the introduction of mandatory corporate social responsibility (CSR) disclosure for a subset of firms as a quasi‐natural experiment, we find that firms subject to ...

The circulation and distribution of classical Greek coinage
Abstract From a sample of the most prominent Greek city‐states, data involving a total of 999 hoards and 160,007 coins from 550 to 300 BC were collected to discern the relative magnitudes, consistency of issue, and distribution of Classical Greek coinages.

Abstract During the global economic crisis of 1929–33, deposits in the Dutch commercial banking sector sharply declined as funds shifted to the government‐guaranteed Post Office Savings Bank and other savings institutions. Unlike earlier studies for neighbouring countries, we demonstrate that this shift was driven less by a flight to safety and more by

Abstract The 1430s were characterized by extreme weather conditions, food and fodder shortages, and high mortalities among animals and humans, although the severity of events and their consequences in England have received limited attention. The economic downturn and the depressed customary land market in this decade marked the beginning of the Great ...
