Clipless Dual-Space Bounds for Faster Stochastic Rasterization
A novel method for increasing the efficiency of stochastic rasterization of motion and defocus blur. Contrary to earlier approaches, the method is efficient even with the low sampling densities commonly encountered in real-time rendering, while allowing the use of arbitrary sampling patterns for optimum image quality.

Decoupled Sampling for Graphics Pipelines
A generalized approach to decoupling shading from both visibility and geometry sampling in graphics pipelines. The technique enables stochastic supersampling of motion and defocus blur and other effects at reduced shading cost, without requiring micropolygon rendering. It can be thought of as a generalization of GPU-style multi-sample anti-aliasing (MSAA).

Spark: Modular, Composable Shaders for Graphics Hardware
Spark improves on current real-time shading languages by supporting better software development practices. It allows the logical features of a real-time shader to be expressed as independent, composable modules, even where a feature cross-cuts multiple stages of the rendering pipeline.

Physically Based Real-Time Lens Flare Rendering
An efficient method to render lens flare of complex optical systems. Based on a combination of traditional ray tracing and rasterization, our technique captures the intricate dynamics of real flare phenomena, while spanning a continuum between accuracy and performance, physical realism and artistic expression.
