GSoC 2022: Many Lights Sampling in Cycles X (Weekly Report)

Weekly Update #8 (8/01-8/07):

This week, I worked on implementing the light sample for the weighted reservoir sampling. I also implemented a separate computation to address issues with the spotlight sampling. These solutions seem to have helped certain test cases, but a few new bugs have been reported in the feedback thread.

Objective for Week #9:

I’m volunteering at SIGGRAPH so I probably won’t be able to work much this week, but I’ll try to check out the reported bugs when I have the time. If anyone else is attending, feel free to reach out!
