The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Got a nice render out of my hobby path tracer :)
Code can be found here! https://github.com/voithos/muon

Just finished (for now) my first ever ray tracing project!
From a casual glance, I think our path tracers have similar code structure (mine's here: https://github.com/voithos/muon). I've been meaning to integrate a denoiser in mine as well, but maybe I should just call out to an external process too...

Bazel as an alternative to CMake
For instance, try to build this project: https://github.com/OpenImageDenoise/oidn - it uses CMake. It will take you some time to build it - since you need first to figure out its dependencies and how to install them - if you have no idea of its dependencies it might take you a few days to figure out how to build it for your platfom. I call this the Build Problem - this is the struggle to build something.

I have 3090 GPU and I have tried optix denoiser but openimage denioiser is better?
At the heart of the Intel Open Image Denoise library is a collection of efficient deep learning based denoising filters, which were trained to handle a wide range of samples per pixel (spp), from 1 spp to almost fully converged. Thus it is suitable for both preview and final frame rendering.

Intel Open Image Denoiser is significantly better than NVIDIA's GPU-based OptiX in Blender cycles (3.2.1). Curious if OID might get Intel ARC GPU acceleration for increased speed.

Any idea on how to get rid of the noise in the face? I put more samples and doubled rendering time but still get the noise.

- Intel has been doing ray tracing before Nvidia and AMD, this should give you an idea on how Arc GPUs will tackle ray tracing
- Anyone know any good Image Denoisers?

Intel oneDNN 2.5 released with experimental RISC-V support
Hooray! Now to wait for OIDN to upgrade to this version of oneDNN.

CPU Path Traced Rendering in Avoyd (now released)
Results from low ray-count path tracing can be fairly noisy, especially with reflections and emissive materials, so I'm using Intel Open Image Denoise. The download for this at 45Mb is over 5x larger than our Avoyd installer, so we don't distribute it but instead link to it as a plugin the user can install. Adding documentation for this was fairly easy using our open sourced imgui_markdown.h.

I finally got around to putting a denoiser in my ray-tracer. I'm happy with the results, 100 samples per pixel, about 30 seconds to render on the CPU
It was this one: https://www.openimagedenoise.org/

Got a nice render out of my hobby path tracer :)
Thanks! It's all done on the CPU, yep. It took about ~40 minutes to render this, but I probably took way more samples than I actually needed to. I did later decide to denoise it using the Open Image Denoiser (https://github.com/OpenImageDenoise/oidn), which made it look quite a bit better, but I'm not sure where the aliasing along the mirror edge came from.
