I extended the answer with what I know. And, just to be clear, for picking a light source you need to use probability, not PDF (probability density function). | |

Extended with requested details

| Mar 11, 2017 at 16:17 | comment | added | Henry Bergin | So for designing a PDF for picking a light, is there a specific method that's proven to be effective? Or does everyone have their own combination of techniques such as the output power, orientation, etc as you mentioned? Also, will it make biased if I do that? Or does dividing by the PDF keep it unbiased? | |
