 * Delete: The only sources in the article are this esteemed person's own works (two papers, one book). This is no different than self-promotion, even if it isn't one. Independent sources are required to show that this person, and not his algorithms, have an impact on the world around it. I cannot even advise merging this article with 3D rendering (while changing the focus to the algorithm instead of the person) because the algorithm needs to receive peer-review first and get implemented. flowing dreams (talk page) 08:00, 28 September 2019 (UTC)
