I am a PhD student at the Max-Planck-Institut für Informatik under the supervision of Gurprit Singh. I am working on stochastic Monte Carlo integration methods and their application to light transport simulations.

My main interests are :

• Blue noise error distribution
• Multiple importance sampling
• Multi-class sampling
• General variance reduction tools for Monte Carlo
