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 weschang.com/publications/r…

@CSProfKGD @DariaNogina @MarkHolum @_AlecJacobson … subfields will require further specialization: far from a comprehensive list, e.g., rendering -> statistics, animation -> physics, geometry -> well, geometry :) I’m missing a lot here, but this is where I’d point someone without any CG (in addition to an intro CG course)

@CSProfKGD @DariaNogina @MarkHolum @_AlecJacobson Strinkingly similar list as the requisites for modern ML: linear algebra, vector calculus, and numerical methods will get you far in CG. Sprinkle in basic data structures (e.g., trees) and algorithms, systems programming and/or GPU programming as needed…

Graphics Twitter: I am considering teaching intro to graphics fully in Python. My current courses are C++ based. So far I think I can do imaging (NumPy), Geometry (NumPy/TriMesh), and animation (NumPy/Warp). Any ideas for Pathtracing? CC: @BartWronsk @wenzeljakob @milesmacklin
