View-Independent Adjoint Light Tracing for Lighting Design Optimization

Kavli Affiliate: Michael Wimmer | First 5 Authors: Lukas Lipp, David Hahn, Pierre Ecormier-Nocca, Florian Rist, Michael Wimmer | Summary: Differentiable rendering methods promise the ability to optimize various parameters of 3d scenes to achieve a desired result. However, lighting design has so far received little attention in this field. In this paper, we introduce […]

View-Independent Adjoint Light Tracing for Lighting Design Optimization

Kavli Affiliate: Michael Wimmer | First 5 Authors: Lukas Lipp, David Hahn, Pierre Ecormier-Nocca, Florian Rist, Michael Wimmer | Summary: Controlling light is a central element when composing a scene, enabling artistic expression, as well as the design of comfortable living spaces. In contrast to previous camera-based inverse rendering approaches, we introduce a novel method […]

Integrability of Large-Charge Sectors in Generic 2D EFTs

Kavli Affiliate: Simeon Hellerman | First 5 Authors: Matthew Dodelson, Simeon Hellerman, Masataka Watanabe, Masahito Yamazaki, | Summary: It is shown that integrability is an accidental property of generic two-dimensional $O(2)$-symmetric asymptotically-free theories in the regime where the charge density is much larger than the dynamical scale. We show this by constructing an infinite tower […]
