Don’t Splat your Gaussians: Volumetric Ray-Traced Primitives for Modeling and Rendering Scattering and Emissive Media
DescriptionWe formalize the path-tracing of volumes composed of anisotropic kernel mixture models. Our work enables computing physically-based light transport on complex volumetric assets efficiently, on tiny memory budgets. We further introduce Epanechnikov kernels as an efficient alternative in kernel-based rendering, and showcase our method in different forward and inverse volume rendering applications including radiance fields.
