| | When you read BRDF theory papers, you'll often see mention of slope space. Sometimes, components of the BRDF such as NDFs or masking-shadowing functions are defined in slope space, or operations are done in slope space before being converted back to ordinary vectors or polar coordinates. However, the meaning and intuition of slope space is rarely explained. Since it may not be obvious exactly what slope space is, why it is useful, or how to transform things to and from it, I thought I would write down a ...

| This article is available as a notebook on Github. Please refer to that notebook for a more detailed discussion and code fixes and updates. Despite all the recent excitement around deep learning, neural networks have a reputation among non-specialists as complicated to build and difficult to interpret. And while interpretability remains an issue, there are now high-level neural network libraries that enable developers to quickly build neural network models without worrying about the numerical details of floating point operations and linear algebra.
