Photorealistic Graphics – materials
Set of essential books/dissertations for the course are:
- [PBRT2018] Pharr M., Humphreys G.:
Physically Based Rendering: From Theory To Implementation. Morgan Kaufmann; 3rd edition, 2018, free online edition is available
- [Glassner1989] A. Glassner:
An Introduction
to Ray Tracing, Academic Press, 1989
- [Shirley2009] P. Shirley, M. Ashikhmin, S. Marschner:
Fundamentals
of Computer Graphics, 3rd edition, A K Peters, 2009
- [Veach1997] Veach E.:
Robust Monte Carlo Methods for Light Transport Simulation,
Ph.D. dissertation, Stanford University, 1997.
From [Glassner1989]: the entire book is useful, maybe except of practical implementation chapters.
From [Shirley2009]: pages 69-90, 233-260, 303-316, 317-338.
