One embodiment provides for a data processing system comprising a memory module to store a multisample render target, the multisample render target to store multiple sample locations for each pixel in a set of pixels and a general-purpose graphics processor including a hardware graphics rendering pipeline to generate pixel color data to be output to the multisample render target, a multisample antialiasing compressor to request allocation of one or more planes to store color data for a set of sample locations of a pixel in the set of pixels, and a memory allocator to allocate memory to store color data associated with the multisample render target. The memory allocator can merge a memory allocation for multiple pixels having a sample associated with a same color value.

A graphics processor is provided that includes circuitry configured to facilitate correspondence finding for higher-order light-based effects such as shadows, objects reflecting in mirrors, waves in water or other liquids, glossy surfaces, or objects visible through transparent and/or refractive glass. The circuitry is configured to procedurally generate temporally stable tracking data for transparent and reflective surfaces during rendering of successive frames, hierarchically analyze the successive frames to detect the procedurally generated data within the successive frames, generate residual motion vectors based on the hierarchical analysis, and warp and align a frame and a successively rendered frame based on renderer supplied motion vectors and the residual motion vectors.

An apparatus to facilitate augmenting temporal anti-aliasing with a neural network for history validation is disclosed. The apparatus includes a set of processing resources configured to perform augmented temporal anti-aliasing (TAA), the set of processing resources including circuitry configured to: receive, at a history validation neural network, inputs for a current pixel of a current frame and a reprojected pixel corresponding to the current pixel, the reprojected pixel originating from history data of the current frame; generate, using an output of the history validation neural network, a validated color for the current pixel based on current color data corresponding to the current pixel and history color data corresponding to the reprojected pixel; render an output frame using the validated color; and add the output frame to the history data.

In one embodiment, a method includes receiving instructions to render a snapshot of a scene for a video, where the snapshot is to be displayed using a sequence of N frames, computing a mipmap-level determining factor for a texture appearing in the scene based on a scale of the texture on a pixel grid, selecting a mipmap level of the texture for each of the N frames based on the mipmap-level determining factor, where the mipmap levels selected for the N frames are non-uniform and temporally approximate the mipmap-level determining factor, rendering each of the N frames by sampling the mipmap level of the texture selected for that frame, and displaying the rendered N frames sequentially to represent the snapshot of the scene.

Curve antialiasing based on curve-pixel intersection is leveraged in a digital medium environment. For instance, to apply antialiasing according to techniques described herein, curves of a visual object are mapped from an original pixel space to a virtual pixel space. Virtual pixels of the virtual pixel space that are intersected by the mapped curves are identified and aggregated as intersected virtual pixels. The intersected virtual pixels are then mapped back into the original pixel space to identify which intersected virtual pixels positionally coincide with respective original pixels of the original pixel space. Intersected virtual pixels are mapped to original pixels to generate pixel coverage for original pixels. The generated pixel coverage values for original pixels are applied to render antialiased curves as part of an antialiased version of the original visual object.

A graphics processing unit includes a pixel shader, an output merger, a cache, and a memory. The pixel shader is configured to output a pixel data. The output merger is coupled to the pixel shader and configured to receive the pixel data. The output merger outputs the pixel data and a sample mask corresponding to the pixel data. The cache is coupled to the output merger and configured to receive the pixel data and the sample mask. The cache generates a sample data according to the pixel data and the sample mask. The memory is coupled to the cache. The cache writes the sample data into the memory. A data size of the sample data is a multiple of a data size of the pixel data. An operation method thereof is also provided.

Systems and methods for generating high dynamic images from interleaved Bayer array data with high spatial resolution and reduced sampling artifacts. Bayer array data are demosaiced into components of the YUV color space before deinterleaving. The Y component and the UV components can be derived from the Bayer array data through demosiac convolution processes. A respective convolution is performed between a convolution kernel and a set of adjacent pixels of the Bayer array that are in the same color channel. A convolution kernel is selected based the mosaic pattern of the Bayer array and the color channels of the set of adjacent pixels. The Y data and UV data are deinterleaved and interpolated into frames of short exposure and long exposures in the second color space. The short exposure and long exposure frames are then blended and converted back to a RGB frame representing a high dynamic range image.

Systems, apparatuses and methods may provide for technology that selects an anti-aliasing mode for a vertex of a primitive based on a parameter associated with the vertex and generates a coverage mask based on the selected anti-aliasing mode. Additionally, one or more pixels corresponding to the vertex may be shaded based at least partly on the coverage mask, wherein the selected anti-aliasing mode varies across a plurality of vertices in the primitive.

A digital medium environment is described to dynamically modify or extend an existing path in a user interface. An un-parameterized input is received that is originated by user interaction with a user interface to specify a path to be drawn. A parameterized path is fit as a mathematical ordering representation of the path to be drawn as specified by the un-parametrized input. A determination is made as to whether the parameterized path is to extend or modify the existing path in the user interface. The existing path is modified or extended in the user interface using the parameterized path in response to the determining that the parameterized path is to modify or extend the existing path.
