Abstract
A system, method, and computer program product are provided for performing path space filtering. In use, a set of light transport paths associated with a scene is sampled. Additionally, a plurality of vertices associated with the sampled set of light transport paths is selected, where each selected vertex has an associated throughput and light contribution. Further, an averaged light contribution of each of the selected plurality of vertices is determined, utilizing one or more weights. Further still, the averaged light contribution of each of the selected plurality of vertices is combined after multiplying the averaged light contribution of each of the selected vertices by the associated throughput of the vertex.
