Sharing this job opportunity at my team: development and productization of ML+Graphics technologies for games. EU remote. careers.amd.com/careers-home...

I will be presenting our "GATE: Geometry-Aware Trained Encoding" at HPG on Wednesday at 9:50AM. See you all in Copenhagen soon! Paper link is here: diglib.eg.org/bitstream/ha...

All HPG 2025 papers are now available on the EG digital library. CGF papers: diglib.eg.org/handle/10.23... Conference papers: diglib.eg.org/handle/10.23... It has been a huge honor to act as HPG papers chair and guest editor and I look forward to an exciting program in Copenhagen.

Working on the next generation frontier technologies for denoising, supersampling, frame generation, radiance caching, GI, path tracing etc. etc.

I wrote a blog post about mipmap level selection. pema.dev/2025/05/09/m...

Who would be interested in a version of #RenderDoc that captures and replays calls to the #WebGPU API (rather than calls to the underlying DirectX/Vulkan/Metal API)? This is an early test that only lists the API calls, but already promissing! Will share when usable.

TIL. I've been using Moeller-Trumbore's ray/tri intersection almost everywhere, for ages. It includes several culling tests, including: u<0, v<0, u>1, u+v>1. Then I encountered this Shadertoy yesterday: www.shadertoy.com/view/wlsfRs This one skips the test for u>1. Which totally makes sense now.

@fcama.bsky.social and the other wizards from the FSR team should be very proud!

AMD's machine learning powered FSR4 on RNDA4 is a monumental leap forward for its GPU division. FSR4 thoroughly obliterates FSR3 making it so that having an AMD GPU no longer means compromising on IQ. But how does it compare to DLSS old and new? Find out in my video! youtu.be/nzomNQaPFSk

With the cooperative matrices starting to standardise I'm kind of starting to wish for a cross-studio cooperation to see an open ML upscaler good enough to kill proprietary solutions. I don't have the power to start something like that unfortunately.

Same MLP applied in world space to learn lighting

Ported my old WebGPU MLP image compressor toy to my new d3d12 framework aschrein.github.io/mlp_compress...

I wrote about the journey to make GPU texture compression work everywhere, including some history on how I got into this field. Check it out! www.ludicon.com/castano/blog...

Got basic soft direct shadows going with blue noise eheitzresearch.wordpress.com/762-2/

Enabled AGS for the shader clock extension

I'm thrilled to share a new JCGT paper, "GPU Friendly Laplacian Texture Blending." It uses simple image processing and computational photography techniques to smoothly blend/layer textures and materials while preserving local contrast and texture details without ghosting or over-blurring. 1/3

Passing attributes to get basic diffuse shading

Made a quick fp8 e4m3 plot aschrein.github.io/pages/fp8_pl... inspired by asawicki.info/articles/fp8...

Got some basic gltf loading thx to github.com/lukas-shawfo...

Hello Ray Tracing! Super cool that renderdoc has basic support these days.

Always nice to see a familiar face for the first time on a new toy framework

Started putting together a new toy gfx framework based on python with pybind11 for directx12 etc.

Hey all, I wrote some WebGPU code to test some race conditions in a shader. If you're willing to try, let me know what you see. Red/flicker means there's a race. I'm especially curious about V3 which could theoretically race but I was never able to catch it. frguthmann.github.io/webgpu_racy_...

Fresh outta Vision Science x Computer Graphics preprint press :: Perceptually Optimized Super Resolution (Karpenko et al. 2024) arxiv.org/abs/2411.17513 Dynamically-guided SR to human-sensitive areas in an image leading to half the flops used for an indistinguishable result from prior methods.

The GPU Zen 3 book is out, perfect timing for the Holiday Season! www.amazon.com/GPU-Zen-Adva... So many fantastic-looking articles! Together with my teammates, we have also contributed a chapter: "Differentiable Graphics with Slang.D for Appearance-Based Optimization".

Khronos will oversee the open-source Slang shading language and compiler www.khronos.org/news/press/k... This is big. Slang is cross-platform, backward-compatible, and trivial to port to. It supports differentiation/gradient computation as the first-class citizen, allowing to merge ML and graphics.

Slang is now officially under open governance at Khronos, and what better way to celebrate than running Slang shaders directly in your browser with WebGPU? try.shader-slang.org You can also compile your shaders to a variety of targets including Metal and HLSL. I'm giddy to finally share this!
