Spicing Up Map Generation
نویسندگان
چکیده
We describe a search-based map generator for the classic real-time strategy game Dune 2. The generator is capable of creating playable maps in seconds, which can be used with a partial recreation of Dune 2 that has been implemented using the Strategy Game Description Language. Map genotypes are represented as low-resolution matrices, which are then converted to higher-resolution maps through a stochastic process involving cellular automata. Map phenotypes are evaluated using a set of heuristics based on the gameplay requirements of Dune 2.

Borosilicate Pigments – Transparency Meets Brilliance and Sparkle
Cosmetic Science Technology 2010 1 Abstract Borosilicate pigments represent a new variety in the wellknown class of pearlescent pigments. Consisting of transparent borosilicate flakes coated with high refractive metal oxides, e.g. titanium dioxide or iron oxides, these innovative pigments allow the achievement of optimum interference effects in combination with outstanding transparency. Borosil...
متن کاملPhytoliths in Pottery Reveal the Use of Spice in European Prehistoric Cuisine
Here we present evidence of phytoliths preserved in carbonised food deposits on prehistoric pottery from the western Baltic dating from 6,100 cal BP to 5750 cal BP. Based on comparisons to over 120 European and Asian species, our observations are consistent with phytolith morphologies observed in modern garlic mustard seed (Alliaria petiolata (M. Bieb) Cavara & Grande). As this seed has a stron...
متن کاملA Fast Depth-Map Generation Algorithm based on Motion Search from 2D Video Contents
Generation of a depth-map from 2D video is the kernel of DIBR (Depth Image Based Rendering) in 2D-3D video conversion systems. However it occupies over most of the system resource where the motion search module takes up 90% time-consuming in typical motion estimation-based depth-map generation algorithms. In order to reduce the computational complexity, in this paper a new fast depth-map genera...
متن کاملTuning extension of a Difference-Frequency generation up to 100 nm using V-shaped external-cavity for the pump laser
In this research, tunability of a commercial diode laser has extended to about more than ± 11 nm using a V-shaped external-cavity fabricated around the laser. Although under normal condition it can be tuned up to about ± 4 nm just by changing its temperature and injection current. Such modified diode laser has then used in a difference-frequency generation (DFG) experimental setup as pump sourc...
متن کاملThree Dimensional Numerical Simulation of Tsunami Generation and Propagation Due to Makran Subduction and run-up on Chabahar Bay and Makran Coasts
Makran subduction located at the northwest of the Indian Ocean nearby the southern coast of Iran and Pakistan. Makran subduction is the source of tsunamis that threaten southern coast of Iran. In this article, generation and propagation of 1945’s tsunami initiated by Makran subduction is simulated. For the three dimensional generation of the wave, advanced algorithm of Okada is adopted. The CFD...
