Abstract:
We present Neural Parametric Mixtures (NPM), a neural formulation to encode target distributions for path guiding. NPM uses a continuous and compact representation for encoding parametric distributions and decodes them via lightweight MLPs. Gradient-based optimization strategy can efficiently train NPM while being practical for parallelization on GPUs.
