  8. Our BRDF Representation • Our BRDF model is based on halfway vector representation. • We used logarithmic transformation of measured BRDF data (non-negativity). • Our Tucker approximation for a 4D BRDF data: • To improve the accuracy of the approximation wepropose applying the Tucker factorization recursively (error modeling approach).

  10. Importance Sampling • If the BRDF data is properly normalized,it can be viewed as sampled frequencies ofa multi-variate probability distribution [ÖKB10]. • Thenstandard statistical methods can be used to generate incidentvectors for a given outgoing direction. Normalizing coefficient of Normalizing coefficient of

  11. Importance Sampling • We experimentally analyzed Tucker factors of both isotropic and anisotropic measured BRDF data set [MPBM03, NDM05]. • Based on the empirical properties explained, the Tucker factorization can be used to reduce the 4D sampling problem into a 2D case.
