While researchers have made great strides in light transport algorithms, or rendering, simulations depend just as much on the underlying material models. Unfortunately, the models widely used in computer graphics assume that the materials are both pristine and immutable, even though real materials are neither. One of the central goals of our research is to devise both new material representations and operators for generating and capturing a broad range of complex surface appearances.
