The color grading curves provide additional color adjustmnent that is applied after any color grading transform (3D LUT). They allow basic adjustment of saturation and small exposure adjustments, along with color filter tinting to provide white balance adjustment or more stylistic effects. These are similar to controls found in many professional imaging or colorist software. The global controls are applied to the entire image. For advanced tuning, extra controls are provided to adjust the shadow, midtone and highlight areas of the image; corresponding to low luminance, medium luminance, and high luminance areas respectively.

Specifies if the ambient texture contains the ambient occlusion information in its red channel only.
Specifies if the metallic texture contains the ambient occlusion information in its red channel.
In case the reflectivity map does not contain the microsurface information in its alpha channel, The material will try to infer what glossiness each pixel should be.
In order to support the falloff compatibility with gltf, a special mode has been added to reproduce the gltf light falloff.
This parameters will enable/disable Horizon occlusion to prevent normal maps to look shiny when the normal makes the reflect vector face the model (under horizon).
A fresnel is applied to the alpha of the model to ensure grazing angles edges are not alpha tested. And/Or occlude the blended part. (alpha stays linear to compute the fresnel)

BJS is using an harcoded light falloff based on a manually sets up range. In PBR, one way to represents the fallof is to use the inverse squared root algorythm. This parameter can help you switch back to the BJS mode in order to create scenes using both materials.
This parameters will enable/disable radiance occlusion by preventing the radiance to lit too much the area relying on ambient texture to define their ambient occlusion.
