Hierarchical NeRF with JAX3D for Volumetric Rendering, Novel-View Synthesis, and 3D Reconstruction
1+ day, 11+ hour ago (688+ words) In this tutorial, we build an end-to-end hierarchical Neural Radiance Field (NeRF) using JAX, Flax, Optax, and the volume-rendering primitives provided by jax3d. We first construct a synthetic multi-view dataset from an analytic scene containing volumetric geometry and view-dependent radiance, using…...
NVIDIA CUDA Toolkit 13.4 Adds Windows on Arm Support
1+ day, 14+ hour ago (556+ words) The release notes for CUDA NVCC 13.4.59 list supported architectures as x86_64, arm64-sbsa, and arm64 (Windows), spanning both Linux and Windows. That’s a meaningful detail for anyone tracking the toolkit’s evolution: arm64-sbsa (Server Base System Architecture) has been NVIDIA’s Linux-side Arm server target…...
Gemma 4 on an Old 4 GB Laptop GPU: QAT Takes It From 9.5 GiB to 1.6
4+ day, 12+ hour ago (1449+ words) This article provides a step by step deployment guide for Gemma 4 E2B's quantization-aware-trained (QAT) checkpoint to a local, laptop hosted GPU enabled system — a much older Lenovo Yoga 9 with a 4 GB GTX 1650 Ti. A suite of Python MCP tools is…...
Modders bring AMD RDNA 2-optimized FSR 4.1.1b with one DLL file, months ahead of AMD
4+ day, 20+ hour ago (310+ words) AMD FSR 4.1.1 is already running on Radeon RX 6000 graphics cards through an unofficial build prepared for RDNA 2. The OptiScaler community has released an FSR INT8 4.1.1b DLL described as being optimized specifically for RDNA 2 hardware. The interesting part is how simple the…...
HiPR Makes Path Tracing More Responsive by Rendering What Matters
5+ day, 9+ hour ago (1183+ words) Researcher Rafael Padilla explains how Hierarchical Progressive Rendering uses scene changes and light transport to prioritize the pixels that matter most. First, can you please tell me a bit about you, your research, and your background as an introduction? That…...
AMD???s New Approach to Ray Tracing Massive Geometry
6+ day, 9+ hour ago (744+ words) Hardware by Nahe Yan on Sep 08, 2026 Ray tracing has become more common in modern graphics, but processing large amounts of animated geometry remains costly. As graphics hardware improves and games move toward path tracing and more detailed scenes, the amount…...
Solidcam 2026 Boosts CAM Simulation With Machine Works GPU
1+ week, 21+ hour ago (146+ words) GPU-based simulation allows users to review large machining jobs more quickly. Solidcam 2026 integrates Machine Works GPU to generate in-process stock models in seconds, helping programmers check selected stages before running a full simulation. For the majority of machining operations Machine…...

Fedora 47 Considering Use Of Thin LTO Compiler Optimizations
1+ week, 3+ day ago (227+ words) A change proposal filed for what would be part of Fedora Linux 47 is on making use of Thin LTO rather than Fat LTO for link-time optimizations. With Thin LTO being more memory efficient and faster build speeds, the hope is…...
GCC 17 Now Supports Using -mtune=native -mcpu=native On RISC-V
1+ week, 4+ day ago (214+ words) As a follow up to last month's article about patches being posted for enabling "-mcpu=native -mtune=native" support for RISC-V with the GCC compiler, that code is now merged for what will become the GCC 17.1 release in the early…...
