This looks very impressive.
Would be awesome built into Octane!

Now if we combine this filtering with one of these boxes:

Voila! Real time rendering.

This by any means will be the death of all unbiased renders. The progress in the rendering speed will be from 100x to 1000x times.AMAZING!

This would be an extremely interesting addition to Octane... Render to 256 samples and let this take over, especially if it can benefit from the GPU speed as well then that would be unimaginable...
I'm not smart enough to understand if they are giving away the algorithms in that paper? Or they want to license it out to the render engines? Or it doesn't actually work fully but it's an idea that needs development?

I think you mean biased renderers, don't you?
