Almost everything you see on the screen is created by Shader. The only reason that you don't have to deal with shaders when beginning with game development is: the game engine or the graphic library handle it automatically for you to render objects in a default way. Sooner or later, you would want to control the shader yourself. And this series (Unity Shader Graph) is made for that purpose: Help you understand the shader.
In this presentation, we're gonna figure out what a shader is and do some experiments with a completed shader called [URP/Lit].
With Shader Graph in Unity 2018, creating powerful and beautiful shaders has never been easier. But with great power, comes great responsibility. This intermediate-level session will explore best practices for rendering performance and shader creation workflow. We'll cover what happens under the hood, share tips to avoid common pitfalls, and highlight what to look for as Shader Graph readies for prime-time release in the near future.

Talk by Yuriy O’Donnell at GDC 2017.
This talk describes how Frostbite handles rendering architecture challenges that come with having to support a wide variety of games on a single engine. Yuriy describes their new rendering abstraction design, which is based on a graph of all render passes and resources. This approach allows implementation of rendering features in a decoupled and modular way, while still maintaining efficiency.
A graph of all rendering operations for the entire frame is a useful abstraction. The industry can move away from “immediate mode” DX11 style APIs to a higher level system that allows simpler code and efficient GPU utilization. Attendees will learn how it worked out for Frostbite.
Course presentation at SIGGRAPH 2014 by Charles de Rousiers and Sébastian Lagarde at Electronic Arts about transitioning the Frostbite game engine to physically-based rendering.
Make sure to check out the 118 page course notes on: http://www.frostbite.com/2014/11/moving-frostbite-to-pbr/
During the last few months, we have revisited the concept of image quality in Frostbite. The core of our approach was to be as close as possible to a cinematic look. We used the concept of reference to evaluate the accuracy of produced images. Physically based rendering (PBR) was the natural way to achieve this. This talk covers all the different steps needed to switch a production engine to PBR, including the small details often bypass in the literature.
The state of the art of real-time PBR techniques allowed us to achieve good overall results but not without production issues. We present some techniques for improving convolution time for image based reflection, proper ambient occlusion handling, and coherent lighting units which are mandatory for level editing.
Moreover, we have managed to reduce the quality gap, highlighted by our systematic reference comparison, in particular related to rough material handling, glossy screen space reflection, and area lighting.
The technical part of PBR is crucial for achieving good results, but represents only the top of the iceberg. Frostbite has become the de facto high-end game engine within Electronic Arts and is now used by a large amount of game teams. Moving all these game teams from “old fashion” lighting to PBR has required a lot of education, which have been done in parallel of the technical development. We have provided editing and validation tools to help the transition of art production. In addition, we have built a flexible material parametrisation framework to adapt to the various authoring tools and game teams’ requirements.
This talk presents the approach Frostbite took to add support for HDR displays. It will summarize Frostbite's previous post processing pipeline and what the issues were. Attendees will learn the decisions made to fix these issues, improve the color grading workflow and support high quality HDR and SDR output. This session will detail the display mapping used to implement the"grade once, output many" approach to targeting any display and why an ad-hoc approach as opposed to filmic tone mapping was chosen. Frostbite retained 3D LUT-based grading flexibility and the accuracy differences of computing these in decorrelated color spaces will be shown. This session will also include the main issues found on early adopter games, differences between HDR standards, optimizations to achieve performance parity with the legacy path and why supporting HDR can also improve the SDR version.
Takeaway
Attendees will learn how and why Frostbite chose to support High Dynamic Range [HDR] displays. They will understand the issues faced and how these were resolved. This talk will be useful for those still to support HDR and provide discussion points for those who already do.
Intended Audience
The intended audience is primarily rendering engineers, technical artists and artists; specifically those who focus on grading and lighting and those interested in HDR displays. Ideally attendees will be familiar with color grading and tonemapping.
The presentation describes Physically Based Lighting Pipeline of Killzone : Shadow Fall - Playstation 4 launch title. The talk covers studio transition to a new asset creation pipeline, based on physical properties. Moreover it describes light rendering systems used in new 3D engine built from grounds up for upcoming Playstation 4 hardware. A novel real time lighting model, simulating physically accurate Area Lights, will be introduced, as well as hybrid - ray-traced / image based reflection system.
We believe that physically based rendering is a viable way to optimize asset creation pipeline efficiency and quality. It also enables the rendering quality to reach a new level that is highly flexible depending on art direction requirements.

Mirror reflections are computed in the Blender Render and Cycles Renderers using ray tracing. (n.b. Reflections are not available in the Game Engine). Ray tracing can be used to make a material reflect its surroundings, like a mirror. The principle of ray-traced reflections is very simple: a ray is fired from the camera and travels through the scene until it encounters an object. If the first object hit by the ray is not reflective, then the ray takes the color of the object. If the object is reflective, then the ray bounces from its current location and travels up to another object, and so on, until a non-reflective object is finally met and gives the whole chain of rays its color. Indirect Lighting adds indirect light bouncing of surrounding objects. It models the light that is reflected from other surfaces to the current surface. Is more comprehensive, more physically correct, and produces more realistic images. It is also more computationally expensive. https://docs.blender.org/manual/en/2.79/render/blender_render/materials/properties/mirror.html Attribution-ShareAlike 2.0 Generic (CC BY-SA 2.0) https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.0/ - https://docs.blender.org/manual/en/2.79/render/blender_render/world/indirect_lighting.html - rastermon.com - Blender is the free and open source 3D creation suite.

Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.

Example: 2D sprites.
Example: Anime style without light.
11. Lit
Affected by light.
Approximated by a math model.
Example: Phong shading.
*Image: Phong & his friends were measuring a car to render in 3D
12. Flat Gouraud Phong
0.0 1.0
Phong shading
Diffuse: Calculate the angle between normal vector
and light direction.
Specular: Calculate the angle between reflected
light ray and view direction.
Smaller angle means brighter color.
13. Cel-shading
Is a Lit shading technique !!!
Transitions between dark & light areas are
controlled by a “shading ramp” image.

14. PBR
Physically-Based Rendering.
A group of light simulation techniques.
Control by multiple images called textures.

Ref: Unity’s Standard Shaders
*Image: The blue turtle
17. PBR Textures – Albedo
A base color without lighting factors (specular, shadow...).
Could be a texture (RGB), a solid color, or both.
Depend on light direction.
Other common names are main / base / diffuse textures.

19. PBR Textures:
Smoothness
Smoother surface means clearer reflection.
Could be a number / a texture.
Specular highlight depends on light and
view direction.
More: Unity's Smoothness
Smoothness = 0 Smoothness = 0.4
0.0 1.0
20. PBR Textures:
Normal
Normal vector is perpendicular to a tangent plane
at a surface point.
Normal vector is important in calculating light effect.
Normal vector usually points outward.

21. Without Normal Map With Normal Map
Texture type must be Normal Map.
Fun: It's mostly purple.
Ref: Unity's Normal Map
PBR Textures:
Normal
22. PBR Textures:
Normal
Could simulate the details with a low-poly
mesh very efficiently.
Bump map is a more general map
whose values indicating the height
adjustment amount, not the direction.
23. Metallic parameter controls specular reflection.
*Smoothness affects specular highlight, too.
Could be a number / a texture (single channel).

PBR Textures:

24. You must pick Metallic or Specular workflow.
Specular gives you more control (color, brightness,
blending with environment ...).
Could be a texture (RGB) or a solid color.
*Not recommended for newbie.

28. A single number might not be enough.
Different parts need different PBR configurations.
That's why we need textures for fine-control.
Varied parameters
By sharing metallic & smoothness,
WOOD looks like BRONZE
32. Other common PBR parameters
ALPHA
Control opacity of transparent object.
*For opaque object, pixels with alpha lower than a threshold would be invisible.
AMBIENT OCCLUSION
Control how much indirect light should be received (specially for cracks, intersections).
EMISSION
Control which area emitting light, and the emitted light color.

SHADER
It's the code to manipulate vertex and fragment data for rendering.
PBR SHADERS
They're flexible and powerful to create realistic materials.
ALBEDO, NORMAL, SMOOTHNESS
They're common properties essential for further study.
