The Object Instancing Paradigm for Linear Fractal Modeling

نویسنده

  • John C. Hart
چکیده

The recurrent iterated function system and the L-system are two powerful linear fractal models. The main drawback of recurrent iterated function systems is a difficulty in modeling whereas the main drawback of L-systems is inefficient geometry specification. Iterative and recursive structures extend the object instancing paradigm, allowing it to model linear fractals . Instancing models render faster and are more intuitive to the computer graphics community. A preliminary section briefly introduces the object instancing paradigm and illustrates its ability to model linear fractals. Two main sections summarize recurrent iterated function systems and L-systems, and provide methods with examples for converting such models to the object instancing paradigm. Finally, a short epilogue describes a particular use of color in the instancing paradigm and the conclusion outlines directions for further research.

$omega$-Operads of coendomorphisms and fractal $omega$-operads for higher structures

     In this article we introduce the notion of textit{Fractal $omega$-operad} emerging from  a natural $omega$-operad associated to any coglobular object in the category of higher operads in Batanin's sense, which in fact is a coendomorphism $omega$-operads. We have in mind coglobular object of higher operads which algebras are kind of higher transformations. It follows that this natural $omeg...

On Efficiently Representing Procedural Geometry

Procedural geometry paradigms are analyzed and classified as either “data amplifier” or “lazy evaluation.” Lazy evaluation reduces the size of the geometric representation passed to renderers and increases the flexibility of procedural experimentation. Several existing procedural geometry systems are compared in this light, and a new one is proposed, called procedural geometric instancing. Insp...

Efficient ray tracing of complex natural scenes*

In this paper we present a method for the consistent modelling and efficient ray tracing of complex natural scenes. Both plants and terrains are modelled and represented in the same way to allow mutual influences of their appearance and interdependencies of their geometry. Plants are generated together with a fractal terrain, so that they directly grow on it. This allows an accurate calculation...

Fractal Approximation and Compression Using Projected Ifs

Approximation of natural objects (curves, surfaces, or images) with fractal models is an important center of interest for research. The general inverse problem paradigm concerns many application fields and a large variety of studies have been proposed to address it.The most known of them is the fractal image compression method introduced by Jacquin. Generally speaking, these techniques lack of ...
