Computing the exact bijection of the optimal transport (OT) problem between very large point sets is completely untractable…
In our SIGGRAPH Asia 2025 paper: “BSP-OT: Sparse transport plans between discrete measures in log-linear time” we get one with typically 1% of error in a few seconds on CPU!

Super happy and honored to share that our paper "BSP-OT: Sparse transport plans between discrete measures in log-linear time" won a *Best paper award* at SIGGRAPH Asia 2025!
If you are here, come see my presentation about this work Wednesday afternoon!
Many thanks to the award committee!

Happy to share the excellent work of @baptiste-genest.bsky.social on making sliced optimal transport *much* better by replacing the sort along a line with a variant of QuickSort that directly takes multiples directions at once! It also directly provides a coupling between points.

Vous avez sûrement déjà lu que la climatisation aggrave les canicules car l’air chaud rejeté à l’extérieur augmenterait la température des villes de 2 à 3°C.
Vérifions ce que disent vraiment les études scientifiques à ce sujet 🧑🔬
(lisez jusqu’au bout, car vous allez être 🤯🤯 à la fin)

📜 New SIGGRAPH 2025 paper 🎉
❔How to compute bounding volumes for procedural Signed Distance Fields (SDFs)? This is not so trivial!
💡We propose a simple method called Sphere Carving. It extracts (convex) bounding volumes around SDFs, requires very few evaluations, and is GPU compatible.

OPEN SCIENCE IS THE FUTURE!
Very pleased to see the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM — the parent organization to my “home” conference SIGGRAPH) has announced it is transitioning to full open access by January 2026!!

I am glad to attend #HPG2025 where I just presented our paper "Fused Collapsing for Wide BVH Construction", co-authored with Mathias Paulin. We propose a fast build algorithm for wide BVHs that directly computes a wide hierarchy without additional collapsing pass. Webpage: wbrbr.org/publications...

Implicit surfaces are great, but if you are not Inigo Quilez, it's really hard to control how they look...
That's why I'm really proud to annonce our Eurographics 2025 paper: "Implicit UVs: Real-time semi-global parameterization of implicit surfaces".
