BRDF Model (English version)

The document discusses various models of the Bidirectional Reflectance Distribution Function (BRDF), emphasizing the differences between phenomenological, physically-based, and data-driven approaches. It outlines key parameters and assumptions involved in these models, such as light reflection types, surface roughness, and the interaction between diffuse and specular reflections. The historical evolution of BRDF models and important contributors in the field are also summarized.

BRDF MODEL Teppei Kurita
REFLECTION PROPERTIES Bidirectional Reflectance Distribution Function (BRDF) Single-wavelength Scattering function Texture Map Bidirectional Scattering Surface Reflectance Distribution Function (BSSRDF) Surface Light Fields Isotropic Bidirectional Reflectance Distribution Function (Isotropic BRDF) Although there is no clear definition, the general usage is as follows BTF • Contains internal scattering, shadowing and occlusion in the same material SVBRDF • Parametric BRDF expression considering spatial changes not considered above Assuming Lambert Ignore incident light Same incident and reflection position Ignore spatial changes Ignore surface scattering Ignore anisotropy Δx,Δy Bidirectional Texture Function (BTF) Spatially Varying Bidirectional Reflectance Distribution Function (SVBRDF) Ignore spatial changes
ASSUMPTION (1) • Radiant flux • Radiant energy per unit time • Irradiance • Radiant flux per unit area • Radiance • Radiant flux per unit solid angle and unit projected area • BRDF • Ratio of Radiance and Irradiance • BRDF multiplied by angle cos 𝜃 between normal and light source direction is a general reflection model • As a general description, many Lambert reflections are multiplied by cos 𝜃 , but to be exact, it is not a BRDF but a reflection model.
ASSUMPTION (2) • Dichromatic Reflection • Almost all parametric BRDF expressions assume dichroic reflection (addition of diffuse reflection and specular reflection) • Observed values originally include ambient light terms, omitted for the sake of simplicity to focus on BRDF expressions • 𝑖 = 𝑖 𝑑 + 𝑖 𝑠
THERE ARE 3 MAJOR BRDF EXPRESSIONS • Phenomenological models • Aside from physical phenomena, focus on modeling that behaves more like it looks • It is good if there are few parameters, and if the parameter has meaning, it is great • Artisan approach • Physically based models • Focus on modeling based on physical analysis • It is more beautiful when there are few parameters, and even more beautiful when the parameters are physical quantities • Scientist approach • Data-driven models • Focus on efficient modeling with actual measurement data (a lot of discussions on data dimension reduction) • In many cases, the meaning of the model is not considered • Engineer approach Representative example Phong Cook-Torrance Acquisition of separable expressions using SVD
EVALUATION OF BRDF MODEL • It is better to be able to express many materials and objects (Less error is better) • It is better to be able to describe with few parameters • Shorter expression is better • It is better not to have a magic number • Almost all evaluation databases use the following: 「MERL BRDF Database https://www.merl.com/brdf/」 MERL BRDF Database [2006]

DETAIL OF BRADY [2014] BRDF Using machine learning (genetic algorithm: GA), gradually evolve the BRDF formula to find the best model Evolution formula Evolving pattern Add, delete, or change numerical values, parameters, operators, etc. 5 BRDFs with good final results after 100 generations of 409600 individuals The best balance • Small error • Few parameters • Expression simplicity They call this "BRDF Model A"

WHAT WE CAN SEE BY LOOKING AT THE TRANSITION • In the BRDF expression, the specular reflection part changes depending on the parameter • Parameters affecting specular reflection • Specular reflection albedo (absolute value) • (Relative) refractive index, Fresnel F at an incident angle of 0 degree (reflectance) • Surface roughness (Although it was said in the paper that it changed with roughness in the past, it gradually becomes a general parameterization) • (Roughness) anisotropy • Mystery parameter (roughness type?) • The model of Brady [2014] is SOTA so far because of its simplicity and few parameters • Can be interpreted as follows Stronger as the half vector is closer to the normal (same idea as Blinn-Phong) Since Fresnel is established as a physical phenomenon, it is necessary Lambert is good for diffuse reflection Parameters that control the extent of specular reflection (same idea as Phong, in which case it is highly correlated with surface roughness) The closer the half vector and incident light, the weaker (Same as the denominator of shadowing term) While the distribution expressed by Cook-Torrance microfacet distribution term (Beckmann) can be expressed, it also enables the expression of more characteristic distributions (such as those with a long base) Beckmann Brady

BRDF Model (English version)

  • 1.
  • 2.
    REFLECTION PROPERTIES Bidirectional Reflectance DistributionFunction (BRDF) Single-wavelength Scattering function Texture Map Bidirectional Scattering Surface Reflectance Distribution Function (BSSRDF) Surface Light Fields Isotropic Bidirectional Reflectance Distribution Function (Isotropic BRDF) Although there is no clear definition, the general usage is as follows BTF • Contains internal scattering, shadowing and occlusion in the same material SVBRDF • Parametric BRDF expression considering spatial changes not considered above Assuming Lambert Ignore incident light Same incident and reflection position Ignore spatial changes Ignore surface scattering Ignore anisotropy Δx,Δy Bidirectional Texture Function (BTF) Spatially Varying Bidirectional Reflectance Distribution Function (SVBRDF) Ignore spatial changes
  • 3.
    ASSUMPTION (1) • Radiantflux • Radiant energy per unit time • Irradiance • Radiant flux per unit area • Radiance • Radiant flux per unit solid angle and unit projected area • BRDF • Ratio of Radiance and Irradiance • BRDF multiplied by angle cos 𝜃 between normal and light source direction is a general reflection model • As a general description, many Lambert reflections are multiplied by cos 𝜃 , but to be exact, it is not a BRDF but a reflection model.
  • 4.
    ASSUMPTION (2) • DichromaticReflection • Almost all parametric BRDF expressions assume dichroic reflection (addition of diffuse reflection and specular reflection) • Observed values originally include ambient light terms, omitted for the sake of simplicity to focus on BRDF expressions • 𝑖 = 𝑖 𝑑 + 𝑖 𝑠
  • 5.
    THERE ARE 3MAJOR BRDF EXPRESSIONS • Phenomenological models • Aside from physical phenomena, focus on modeling that behaves more like it looks • It is good if there are few parameters, and if the parameter has meaning, it is great • Artisan approach • Physically based models • Focus on modeling based on physical analysis • It is more beautiful when there are few parameters, and even more beautiful when the parameters are physical quantities • Scientist approach • Data-driven models • Focus on efficient modeling with actual measurement data (a lot of discussions on data dimension reduction) • In many cases, the meaning of the model is not considered • Engineer approach Representative example Phong Cook-Torrance Acquisition of separable expressions using SVD
  • 6.
    EVALUATION OF BRDFMODEL • It is better to be able to express many materials and objects (Less error is better) • It is better to be able to describe with few parameters • Shorter expression is better • It is better not to have a magic number • Almost all evaluation databases use the following: 「MERL BRDF Database https://www.merl.com/brdf/」 MERL BRDF Database [2006]

    WHAT WE CANSEE BY LOOKING AT THE TRANSITION • In the BRDF expression, the specular reflection part changes depending on the parameter • Parameters affecting specular reflection • Specular reflection albedo (absolute value) • (Relative) refractive index, Fresnel F at an incident angle of 0 degree (reflectance) • Surface roughness (Although it was said in the paper that it changed with roughness in the past, it gradually becomes a general parameterization) • (Roughness) anisotropy • Mystery parameter (roughness type?) • The model of Brady [2014] is SOTA so far because of its simplicity and few parameters • Can be interpreted as follows Stronger as the half vector is closer to the normal (same idea as Blinn-Phong) Since Fresnel is established as a physical phenomenon, it is necessary Lambert is good for diffuse reflection Parameters that control the extent of specular reflection (same idea as Phong, in which case it is highly correlated with surface roughness) The closer the half vector and incident light, the weaker (Same as the denominator of shadowing term) While the distribution expressed by Cook-Torrance microfacet distribution term (Beckmann) can be expressed, it also enables the expression of more characteristic distributions (such as those with a long base) Beckmann Brady
