Abstract

Monte Carlo is the only choice of physically correct method to compute the problem of global illumination in the field of realistic image synthesis. Reusing light transport paths is an interesting and effective tool to eliminate noise, which is one of the main problems of Monte Carlo based global illumination algorithms, such as Monte Carlo ray tracing. But reusing paths technique tends to group spike noise to form noise patches in the images. We propose an alternative way to implementing the reuse of paths to tackle this problem in this paper. Experimental results show that our new way is very promising.
