Excited to share our #SIGGRAPH2023 work on accelerating inverse rendering with ReSTIR. Since we render a sequence of frames during optimization, we can reuse samples from previous frames, just like in real-time rendering. 1/3

Andrea @taiyasaki is an inspiring researcher and a fantastic person to boot! I’d jump at the chance to join his group, if I was starting in this field again today.
Considering a PhD? Interested in 3D deep learning, neural scene representations, NeRFs, and applications to robotics and graphics?
