Quick question, was the denoiser used to denoise this scene the same or similar one published by Hasselgren, et. al. here?:

Thanks!

Hello Jason and welcome back to the NVIDIA Developer forums!

That said, I will check if I can get confirmation on this internally.

Thanks!

Hi @jason.rodriguez !

I stand corrected, those two works are indeed connected, you interpreted this correctly.

In 2019 the authors were not quite ready to publish their research, so they refined what they demoed at SIGGRAPH 2019 and published their work later in the paper you cited.

I hope we could help you!
