Material reflectance in illumination simulation is usually approximated with Gaussians, computed globally. Replacing these with locally computed approximations improves the efficiency of many light-transport algorithms.

A new fast and memory-efficient stochastic algorithm for rendering a large number of mirror-like flakes that efficiently implements optimal importance sampling for wide and heavy-tailed microfacet distributions, handles geometry without texture coordinates, and is blended with the corresponding smooth microfacet BRDF with distance.
