**1/** **@Jonathan_Blow** ^2014821856772292614
|
||||
|
||||
One thing I like about GA is that it is so systemic and makes so much sense when it comes to linear stuff. The conformal stuff just kind of loses me though, at first glance it always looks like a lot of added complexity for small gain. What should I look at to convince myself I am wrong here?
|
||||
|
||||
**2/** **@EricLengyel** ^2014843525083627609
|
||||
|
||||
You're not wrong about the conformal stuff. While I find it convenient for expressing a small set of geometric calculations, I don't think it's very useful in general, and it certainly isn't a monument to efficiency. My book is very candid about this, going as far as calling parts of it "computationally absurd". (I also think just about all traditional presentations of CGA are quite poor and fail to convey any intuition whatsoever, which does contribute something to its lack of practical utility.)
|
||||
|
||||
What I find most useful in GA is not the conformal stuff but the 4D projective algebra that encompasses homogeneous coordinates, planes, Plücker coordinates, quaternions, and dual quaternions all in one nice neat framework.
|
||||
|
||||
The projective algebra is fully contained inside the conformal algebra, so it doesn't hurt to just have the extra conformal tools available in case you want to use them here and there. This does not require any changes to geometric representations for things not in the conformal algebra, so you wouldn't have to do anything stupid like storing five components for every point.

wow, you are wrong on this point. PGA is fine but CGA is ultrafine. Our Universe is eminently conformal. Take a deep breath and look at the quantum level for instance.

I purchased this when it came out on Amazon. It was an enlightening read. Do you know if the page thickness or material can be upgraded? I found that my quality highlighters bled through the pages and had to switch to red pen to make notes.

I've already selected the highest-quality paper that's available through Amazon's KDP (which prints the books). I have found it to be pretty good, but it's possible that the paper differs in quality depending on where in the world the actual printing took place.

I've bounced off GA a few times after approaching it eagerly, so I get what is tantalizing and frustrating about it. So I salute the effort the make it clear; and if you've succeeded so well that others are adopting your formulation, then double congratulations!

I've been following your work for a few years & I implemented in Python earlier stuff from your website & new stuff from the book, even the transwedge product. That's all at the frontier of GA so much that all other effort by others looks pale in comparison. You restarted GA!

|

|

One thing I like about GA is that it is so systemic and makes so much sense when it comes to linear stuff. The conformal stuff just kind of loses me though, at first glance it always looks like a lot of added complexity for small gain. What should I look at to convince myself I am wrong here?
|
||||
|
||||
**3/** **@EricLengyel** ^2014843525083627609
|
||||
|
||||
You're not wrong about the conformal stuff. While I find it convenient for expressing a small set of geometric calculations, I don't think it's very useful in general, and it certainly isn't a monument to efficiency. My book is very candid about this, going as far as calling parts of it "computationally absurd". (I also think just about all traditional presentations of CGA are quite poor and fail to convey any intuition whatsoever, which does contribute something to its lack of practical utility.)
|
||||
|
||||
What I find most useful in GA is not the conformal stuff but the 4D projective algebra that encompasses homogeneous coordinates, planes, Plücker coordinates, quaternions, and dual quaternions all in one nice neat framework.
|
||||
|
||||
The projective algebra is fully contained inside the conformal algebra, so it doesn't hurt to just have the extra conformal tools available in case you want to use them here and there. This does not require any changes to geometric representations for things not in the conformal algebra, so you wouldn't have to do anything stupid like storing five components for every point.

**1/** **@NOTimothyLottes** ^1956164955742343330
|
||||
|
||||
Still on my TODO list to present non-local mapping talk at some point. But in the meantime, an interesting take on tone-mapping from Polyphony Digital: https://blog.selfshadow.com/publications/s2025-shading-course/pdi/s2025_pbs_pdi_slides.pdf
|
||||
|
||||
**2/** **@NOTimothyLottes** ^1956165533860061349
|
||||
|
||||
The followup to the VDR talk that they referenced in their talk is here: https://gpuopen.com/download/gdc-2019-s5-blend-of-gcn-optimization-and-color-processing.pdf - Interesting similarities of problem space: how to shape color in the highlight compression region, how to manage maintaining stable color in the mid-tones ...
|
||||
|
||||
**3/** **@NOTimothyLottes** ^1956166150590468573
|
||||
|
||||
So I wonder how much of the desire for the linear mid-tone region is motivated by preservation of color during separate RGB channel tonemaps. I felt I didn't need a linear region because I separated luma and choma and preserved color ratio (regardless of luma remapping)
|
||||
|
||||
**4/** **@NOTimothyLottes** ^1956166742369034419
|
||||
|
||||
Think maybe the LPM source ended up with a not great solution for the highlight path, but the theory I still feel is sound. Polyphony found another interesting way to shape color on overexposure, which is nice to see
|
||||
|
||||
**5/** **@NOTimothyLottes** ^1956167243139551742
|
||||
|
||||
I really like the focus on dual adaption, and I personally would go to extents to have rod-dominate scene view with it's desaturation and grain. But I think I'd still skip UCS and keep in RGB as color I feel is still too locally dependent to use global remappers
|
||||
|
||||
**6/** **@NOTimothyLottes** ^1956167580567121976
|
||||
|
||||
Which is a great point to terminate on, that if I do another shader package for tonemapping and an associated talk (likely just on youtube) it will only be talking about going all in on local adaption, no more global stuff for me
|
||||
|
||||
**7/** **@NOTimothyLottes** ^1956169397116060053
|
||||
|
||||
And also in Polyphony's credits: Troy, you continue to be an inspiration: https://hg2dc.com best F*n reference to color :)
