   abstract = {Bidirectional Texture Functions (BTF) can be used to render realistic surfaces without the need of
               modeling details in geometry. For efficient, real-time rendering on current graphics hardware it is
               necessary to find good approximations for the BTF data, because the full data is too large to be
               rendered. We will compare two approximations, the Polynomial Texture Map (PTM) and the
               Per-Pixel-Lafortune-BRDF. To use larger samples, we use texture synthesis methods based on BTF
               analysis with the BTF samples and compare the results obtained with different settings and
               materials. We combine these approaches with a rendering method that provides real-time rendering on
               large surfaces, but does only need little more memory than for the small samples.}
