Perception-based Lighting Design

Perception-based lighting design approaches model image quality using a cognitively grounded objective function which is in turn optimized through manipulation of the lighting parameters of a scene. We present, and demonstrate, a detailed implementation of perception-based lighting design, including the application and evaluation of stochastic optimization using genetic algorithms.
