Modeling Plants with Environment-Sensitive Automata
نویسنده
چکیده
We present a new approach for modeling plants which allows for adaptation to geometrical and material properties of a simulated environment. The form of a plant is derived from the paths of one or more automata which begin as seeds and progressively explore the environment. The au-tomata sense their surroundings by casting rays and using intersection information to innuence subsequent patterns of growth. In this way the power of well-known ray tracing techniques is applied to a problem of geometric modeling. By seeking locations which satisfy various environmental criteria such as proximity to surfaces and availability of light, the automata extend the repertoire of simulated plant growth to include emulation of phenomena such as clinging vines and heliotropism. This approach to database am-pliication can be used in conjunction with previous methods such as particle systems and graftals.

متن کاملUsing Interval Petri Nets and Timed Automata for Diagnosis of Discrete Event Systems (DES)
A discrete event system (DES) is a dynamic system that evolves in accordance with the abrupt occurrence, at possibly unknown irregular intervals, of physical events. Because of the special nature of these systems, different tools are currently used for their analysis, design and modeling. The main focus of this paper is the presentation of a new modeling approach of Discrete Event Systems. The ...

متن کاملRobot Path Planning Using Cellular Automata and Genetic Algorithm
In path planning Problems, a complete description of robot geometry, environments and obstacle are presented; the main goal is routing, moving from source to destination, without dealing with obstacles. Also, the existing route should be optimal. The definition of optimality in routing is the same as minimizing the route, in other words, the best possible route to reach the destination. In most...
