So far there has been no metallic BRDF model that is easy to compute, suitable for fast importance sampling and is physically plausible. This gap is filled by appropriate modifications of the Phong, Blinn and the Ward models. The Phong and the Blinn models are known not to have metallic characteristics. On the other hand, this paper also shows that the Cook-Torrance and the Ward models are not physically plausible, because of their behavior at grazing angles. We also compare the previous and the newly proposed models. Finally, the generated images demonstrate how the metallic impression can be provided by the new models.}, year = {1999}, eissn = {1467-8659}, pages = {161-172}, orcid-numbers = {Szirmay-Kalos, László/0000-0002-8523-2315} } @article{MTMT:2612466, title = {Reflectance models with fast importance sampling}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/2612466}, author = {Neumann, L and Neumann, A and Szirmay-Kalos, László}, doi = {10.1111/1467-8659.00378}, journal-iso = {COMPUT GRAPH FORUM}, journal = {COMPUTER GRAPHICS FORUM}, volume = {18}, unique-id = {2612466}, issn = {0167-7055}, abstract = {We introduce a physically plausible mathematical model for a large class of BRDFs. The new model is as simple as the well-known Phong model, but eliminates its disadvantages. It gives a good visual approximation for many practical materials: coated metals, plastics, ceramics, retro-reflective paints, anisotropic and retro-reflective materials, etc. Because of its illustrative properties it can be used easily in most commercial software and because of its low computational cost it is practical for virtual reality. The model is based on a special basic BRDF definition, which meets the requirements of reciprocity and of energy conservation. Then a class of BRDFs is constructed from this basic BRDF with different ent weight functions, The definition of such weight functions requires the user to specify the profile of the highlights,from which the weight function is obtained by derivation. It is also demonstrated how importance sampling can be used with the new BRDFs.}, year = {1999}, eissn = {1467-8659}, pages = {249-265}, orcid-numbers = {Szirmay-Kalos, László/0000-0002-8523-2315} } @article{MTMT:2616721, title = {Reflectance Models by Pumping up the Albedo Function}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/2616721}, author = {Neumann, László and Neumann, Attila and Szirmay-Kalos, László}, journal-iso = {MACH GRAPH VIS}, journal = {MACHINE GRAPHICS AND VISION}, volume = {8}, unique-id = {2616721}, issn = {1230-0535}, year = {1999}, pages = {3-18}, orcid-numbers = {Szirmay-Kalos, László/0000-0002-8523-2315} }
