Micro-appearance models have brought unprecedented fidelity and details to cloth rendering. Yet, these models neglect fabric mechanics: when a piece of cloth interacts with the environment, its yarn and fiber arrangement usually changes in response to external contact and tension forces. Since subtle changes of a fabrics microstructures can greatly affect its macroscopic appearance, mechanics-driven appearance variation of fabrics has been a phenomenon that remains to be captured. We introduce a mechanics-aware model that adapts the microstructures of cloth yarns in a physics-based manner. Our technique works on two distinct physical scales: using physics-based simulations of individual yarns, we capture the rearrangement of yarn-level structures in response to external forces. These yarn structures are further enriched to obtain appearance-driving fiber-level details. The cross-scale enrichment is made practical through a new parameter fitting algorithm for simulation, an augmented procedural yarn model coupled with a custom-design regression neural network. We train the network using a dataset generated by joint simulations at both the yarn and the fiber levels. Through several examples, we demonstrate that our model is capable of synthesizing photorealistic cloth appearance in a %dynamic and mechanically plausible way.

We present a novel parallel algorithm for cloth simulation that exploits multiple GPUs for fast computation and the handling of very high resolution meshes. To accelerate implicit integration, we describe new parallel algorithms for sparse matrix-vec tor multiplication (SpMV) and for dynamic matrix assembly on a multi-GPU workstation. Our algorithms use a novel work queue generation scheme for a fat-tree GPU interconnect topology. Furthermore, we present a novel collision handling scheme that uses spatial hashing for discrete and continuous collision detection along with a non-linear impact zone solver. Our parallel schemes can distribute the computation and storage overhead among multiple GPUs and enable us to perform almost interactive simulation on complex cloth meshes, which can hardly be handled on a single GPU due to memory limitations. We have evaluated the performance with two multi-GPU workstations (with 4 and 8 GPUs, respectively) on cloth meshes with 0.5-1.65M triangles. Our approach can reliably handle the collisions and generate vivid wrinkles and folds at 2-5 fps, which is significantly faster than prior cloth simulation systems. We observe almost linear speedups with respect to the number of GPUs.

Cloth simulation has wide applications including computer animation, garment design, and robot-assisted dressing. In this work, we present a differentiable cloth simulator whose additional gradient information facilitates cloth-related applications. Our differentiable simulator extends the state-of-the-art cloth simulator based on Projective Dynamics and with dry frictional contact governed by the Signorini-Coulomb law. We derive gradients with contact in this forward simulation framework and speed up the computation with Jacobi iteration inspired by previous differentiable simulation work. To our best knowledge, we present the first differentiable cloth simulator with the Coulomb law of friction. We demonstrate the efficacy of our simulator in various applications, including system identification, manipulation, inverse design, and a real-to-sim task. Many of our applications have not been demonstrated in previous differentiable cloth simulators. The gradient information from our simulator enables efficient gradient-based task solvers from which we observe a substantial speedup over standard gradient-free methods.
Existing physical cloth simulators suffer from expensive computation and difficulties in tuning mechanical parameters to get desired wrinkling behaviors. Data-driven methods provide an alternative solution. It typically synthesizes cloth animation at a much lower computational cost, and also creates wrinkling effects that highly resemble the much controllable training data. In this paper we propose a deep learning based method for synthesizing cloth animation with high resolution meshes. To do this we first create a dataset for training: a pair of low and high resolution meshes are simulated and their motions are synchronized. As a result the two meshes exhibit similar large-scale deformation but different small wrinkles. Each simulated mesh pair are then converted into a pair of low and high resolution images (a 2D array of samples), with each sample can be interpreted as any of three features: the displacement, the normal and the velocity. With these image pairs, we design a multi-feature super-resolution (MFSR) network that jointly train an upsampling synthesizer for the three features. The MFSR architecture consists of two key components: a sharing module that takes multiple features as input to learn low-level representations from corresponding super-resolution tasks simultaneously; and task-specific modules focusing on various high-level semantics. Frame-to-frame consistency is well maintained thanks to the proposed kinematics-based loss function. Our method achieves realistic results at high frame rates: 12-14 times faster than traditional physical simulation. We demonstrate the performance of our method with various experimental scenes, including a dressed character with sophisticated collisions.
BRDF models are ubiquitous tools for the representation of material appearance. However, there is now an astonishingly large number of different models in practical use. Both a lack of BRDF model standardisation across implementations found in differ ent renderers, as well as the often semantically different capabilities of various models, have grown to be a major hindrance to the interchange of production assets between different rendering systems. Current attempts to solve this problem rely on manually finding visual similarities between models, or mathematical ones between their functional shapes, which requires access to the shader implementation, usually unavailable in commercial renderers. We present a method for automatic translation of material appearance between different BRDF models, which uses an image-based metric for appearance comparison, and that delegates the interaction with the model to the renderer. We analyse the performance of the method, both with respect to robustness and visual differences of the fits for multiple combinations of BRDF models. While it is effective for individual BRDFs, the computational cost does not scale well for spatially-varying BRDFs. Therefore, we further present a parametric regression scheme that approximates the shape of the transformation function and generates a reduced representation which evaluates instantly and without further interaction with the renderer. We present respective visual comparisons of the remapped SVBRDF models for commonly used renderers and shading models, and show that our approach is able to extrapolate transformed BRDF parameters better than other complex regression schemes.
We present a model to measure the similarity in appearance between different materials, which correlates with human similarity judgments. We first create a database of 9,000 rendered images depicting objects with varying materials, shape and illumina tion. We then gather data on perceived similarity from crowdsourced experiments; our analysis of over 114,840 answers suggests that indeed a shared perception of appearance similarity exists. We feed this data to a deep learning architecture with a novel loss function, which learns a feature space for materials that correlates with such perceived appearance similarity. Our evaluation shows that our model outperforms existing metrics. Last, we demonstrate several applications enabled by our metric, including appearance-based search for material suggestions, database visualization, clustering and summarization, and gamut mapping.
