Abstract: Techniques for generating an arbitrary ensemble view from a plurality of other existing views are disclosed. In some embodiments, arbitrary view generation comprises retrieving a set of views corresponding to each of a plurality of objects, transforming the set of views of each of the plurality of objects to a requested perspective, and generating an ensemble view comprising the plurality of objects that has the requested perspective by combining pixels from the transformed sets of views of the plurality of objects.

Abstract: Adaptive sampling of pixels is disclosed. In some embodiments, an initial rendering of a scene that determines texture at each portion of the scene is generated, and a ray traced rendering of the scene is generated by tracing an initial sample of rays. The following steps are iterated until all portions of the ray traced rendering satisfy a noise threshold: subtract the initial rendering of the scene from the ray traced rendering of the scene to determine a measure of noise at each portion of the ray traced rendering and trace another sample of rays in the ray traced rendering for each portion of the ray traced rendering that does not satisfy the noise threshold. The completed ray traced rendering is outputted. Different portions of the completed ray traced rendering are sampled with different numbers of samples of rays.

Abstract: Techniques for generating an arbitrary view from a plurality of other existing views are disclosed. In some embodiments, arbitrary view generation includes retrieving a first image having a first perspective and a second image having a second perspective, transforming each of the first image and the second image into a third perspective; and generating a third image having the third perspective by combining at least some of the pixels from the transformed first image and at least some of the pixels from the transformed second image.

Abstract: Techniques for delivering virtualized content are disclosed. In some embodiments, at least portions of obtained source content are mapped to one or more parameterized database objects that collectively define a model environment representing the source content. Data specifying the model environment is provided to an output device at which the source content is desired to be rendered instead of the source content to facilitate a better quality rendering at the output device than the quality of the source content. Rendered content at the output device substantially does not comprise of original data comprising the source content.
