Error analysis of estimators that use combinations of stochastic sampling strategies for direct illumination

We present a theoretical analysis of error of combinations of Monte Carlo estimators used in image synthesis. Importance sampling and multiple importance sampling are popular variance‐reduction strategies. Unfortunately, neither strategy improves the rate of convergence of Monte Carlo integration. J...
