Abstract

Jaroslav Křivánek has been an outstanding and highly respected rendering researcher who passed away far ahead of time. Through his numerous contributions to light transport simulation, he profoundly influenced an entire domain of academia and industry.

In this course, we will recap many important contributions of Jaroslav's career, underlining their practicality and piecing them together as subsequent steps to finding the "one" robust light transport simulation algorithm that would efficiently render any given scene. Rarely has a single person had such an impact, and we believe it is worth remembering and continuing his legacy.
