Abstract

A method, computer readable medium, and system are disclosed for implementing automatic level-of-detail for physically-based materials. The method includes the steps of identifying a declarative representation of a material to be rendered, creating a reduced complexity declarative representation of the material by applying one or more term rewriting rules to the declarative representation of the material, and returning the reduced complexity declarative representation of the material.
