Local estimations of Monte Carlo method with the object spectral representation in the solution of global illumination

The article deals with the local and double local estimation of the Monte Carlo method for solving the equation of global illumination. The local estimation allows calculating the illumination at any point at the approximation of diffuse reflection, whereas the double local estimation allows calculating directly the luminance at a given point in a given direction. The article presents the mathematical basis of local estimations and the basic stages of the software implementation. The representation of three-dimensional objects in the basis of spherical functions and the possibility of using them in the local estimations are also considered.
