One‐more‐vertex Next‐Event Estimation with Hierarchical Geometry Sampling

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Robust next‐event estimation (NEE) remains a challenge in scenes characterized by sparse or small‐scale geometry where indirect illumination is the primary transport mechanism. In these scenes, traditional path construction, which relies on local directional sampling, often fails to find intersections with the sparse geometry, and standard NEE

Frequency‐Aware Spatial‐Angular Gaussians for Efficient Global Illumination Precomputation and Real‐Time Rendering

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Precomputation and efficient approximate material models are well‐known approaches for achieving real‐time rendering with global illumination. Recent research in radiance fields and in particular 3D Gaussian Splatting has demonstrated the power of Gaussian primitives both to represent radiance and for fast optimization.

A Splitting Architecture for Exact Reduced Coulomb Friction

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Existing approaches to frictional contact dynamics typically either modify the Coulomb law to improve numerical robustness or solve the exact law in a fully coupled monolithic form. However, in its reduced form, exact Coulomb friction can be written as a cone complementarity problem with an augmented velocity, which reveals a natural split ...

Convergence rates of general regularization methods for statistical inverse problems and applications [PDF]

open access: yes
During the past the convergence analysis for linear statistical inverse problems has mainly focused on spectral cut-off and Tikhonov type estimators. Spectral cut-off estimators achieve minimax rates for a broad range of smoothness classes and operators,

The Augmented Hat‐Matrix of Hierarchical Generalised Linear Models and Its Use in Leverage Diagnostics

open access: yesInternational Statistical Review, EarlyView.
Summary Defining a ‘hat‐matrix’ for a model is essential in many model diagnostic procedures, as it acts as an orthogonal projector from the observation space to the model space. In this paper, we introduce a unique Hat‐matrix for the class of hierarchical generalised linear models (HGLMs), which includes, as a special case, the subclass of generalised

A spectral analysis extension to DEMATEL for strategic leverage points identification

open access: yesInternational Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Efforts to intervene in complex systems often emphasize influential factors, yet system behavior is equally shaped by the relationships among them. Methods such as Decision‐Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory (DEMATEL) map causal structures but remain descriptive and do not identify which relationships provide the greatest leverage for ...

Exposure to Climate Change and Earnings Manipulation

open access: yesJournal of Business Finance &Accounting, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates whether and how climate change exposure (CCE) influences corporate financial reporting practices. Using a newly developed firm‐specific CCE measure from conference calls, we find that US firms with higher CCE exhibit greater real earnings management (REM).
