Abstract

We present a visualisation tool aimed specifically at the development and optimisation of photon map denoising methods. Our tool allows the rapid testing of hypotheses and algorithms through the use of parallel coordinates, domain-specific scripting, color mapping and point plots. Interaction is car...
