The expressions for the partial derivatives of the disk primitive in

In the code at the top of the page, the cross product to initialize "ss"
should be "ss = Cross(ns, ts);". As it's currently written, ss is flipped,
which in turn flips the handedness of the normal. (We have not fixed this
bug in the source code, as many existing scenes will render differently
with this corrected; in particular, specular reflection and transmission
through surfaces with shading normals will interpret the two indices of
refraction differently. We will fix this properly in the third edition.)

Contrary to the claims in the text, primitives that overlap multiple voxels
will be refined repeatedly, thence wasting both memory and computation.
(The best fix is probably to have the Voxel structure store a vector of
primitive indices, indexing into the main vector of primitive references
in the GridAccel class.)

The kd-tree traversal logic for rays that start on a splitting plane is
incorrect. The "belowFirst" test in the "Get node children pointers for ray"

The computation of yint in the code fragment at the top of page 272 is
incorrect (unless the number of spectral samples is equal to nCIESamples).
Since the value of yint should always be the same, we should just make it
const and initialize it to the constant 106.856895.

In the ToXYZ() method after the "for" loop, the sums in xyz[] should also be scaled by

There are a number of errors in how the sampling rate for Perlin noise is
computed. If we assume that the maximum frequency of n octaves of noise is
about 2, we want s / 2^n >= 2 to avoid aliasing.
Solving for n gives is -1 + log2(s), which is equivalent to -1 + 1/2
log2(s^2), which is better since s^2 is cheaper to compute than s.
Now, why do things sort of work as is? In the code fragment on the next
page, we compute s2 as the maximum of the length squared of dPdx and
dPdy--but that gives us a length, not a frequency! It's actually 1/s we're
computing there. Thus, the final number of octaves used when the code runs
ends up being 1 + 1/2 log2(s^2) (since log(1/x) = -log(x)), and the final
result is that we include two octaves too many.
Therefore, in the code fragment on page 562, the expression to compute
"foctaves" should be "min((float)maxOctaves, max(0.f, -1.f - .5f *
Log2(s2)));"

The instances of lower_bound on this page should be upper_bound().
Otherwise if you have a piecewise-constant segment in your CDF (as would
result from a zero-valued region of the PDF), then the division by
(cdf[offset+1] - cdf[offset]) to compute "du" leads to a division by zero
(and thence badness). With upper_bound, you're guaranteed that
cdf[offset+1] > cdf[offset], so that division won't blow up.

Figure 14.7 and the text on this page are confusing, since \theta_i and
\theta_o are here angles with respect to the halfangle vector (instead of
with respect to the normal, as elsewhere in the book), and \theta_h here is
used as the angle between \omega_h and \omega_i (and \omega_o), which is
inconsistent with the definition of \theta_h on page 696. One fix to
clarify what's going on here would be to instead use plain \theta for the
angle between \omega_h and \omega_i / \omega_o, so that it's then 2 \theta
between \omega_i and \omega_o.

It's incorrect for the ShapeSet to find the closest intersection with the

There are a number of errors in the two displayed equations at the top of
the page. The top integral should be written over angles \omega, not
\omega'. Then, the |\cos \theta| divisor should be |\cos \theta'|, and the
explanation of the definition of the angle \theta' should be moved to be
after the first displayed equation rather than after the second one. Then,
Equation 15.12 should be rewritten so that it is also an integral over
\omega (not \omega'), and the remaining cosine term in that equation should
be |\cos \theta|.

Equation 15.15 should have a cos theta term in the integrand on the right
side of the equation. (Comparing with Equation 4.30 in Veach's thesis,
Veach is using the projected solid angle measure for ray directions, while
PBRT uses the regular solid angle measure.) This fix in turn leads to
corresponding updates to the equations throughout the rest of this
subsection.

The photon mapping estimator equation, 15.20, is incorrect as written; the
final result should be "1/N(d_n(p))^2 \sum_j^N k(p-p_j/d_n(p)) \alpha_j

leads to an incorrect double-sum over the photons.)
