Abstract

Procedural techniques have been successfully utilized for generating various kinds of 3D models. In this study, we propose a procedural method to build 3D towns that can be manipulated by a set of high-level semantic principles namely security, privacy, sustainability, social-life, economy, and beauty. Based on the user defined weights of these principles, our method generates a 3D settlement to accommodate a desired population over a given terrain. Our approach firstly determines where to establish the settlement over the large terrain which is followed by iteratively constructing the town. In both steps, the principles guide the decisions and our method generates natural looking small-scale 3D residential regions similar to the cities of pre-industrial era. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach to build semantically plausible town models by presenting sample results over real world based terrains.

语义上合理的小规模城镇的程序生成

程序技术已经成功地用于生成各种类型的3D模型。在这项研究中，我们提出了一种构建3D城镇的程序方法，该方法可以通过一套高级语义原则来操作，即安全、隐私、可持续性、社会生活、经济和美丽。基于这些原则的用户定义权重，我们的方法生成了一个三维定居点，以在给定的地形上容纳所需的人口。我们的方法首先确定在大地形上的何处建立定居点，然后迭代构建城镇。在这两个步骤中，原则指导决策，我们的方法生成看起来自然的小规模3D住宅区，类似于前工业时代的城市。我们通过在基于现实世界的地形上呈现样本结果，证明了所提出的方法在建立语义上合理的城镇模型方面的有效性。

期刊介绍： Graphical Models is recognized internationally as a highly rated, top tier journal and is focused on the creation, geometric processing, animation, and visualization of graphical models and on their applications in engineering, science, culture, and entertainment. GMOD provides its readers with thoroughly reviewed and carefully selected papers that disseminate exciting innovations, that teach rigorous theoretical foundations, that propose robust and efficient solutions, or that describe ambitious systems or applications in a variety of topics. We invite papers in five categories: research (contributions of novel theoretical or practical approaches or solutions), survey (opinionated views of the state-of-the-art and challenges in a specific topic), system (the architecture and implementation details of an innovative architecture for a complete system that supports model/animation design, acquisition, analysis, visualization?), application (description of a novel application of know techniques and evaluation of its impact), or lecture (an elegant and inspiring perspective on previously published results that clarifies them and teaches them in a new way). GMOD offers its authors an accelerated review, feedback from experts in the field, immediate online publication of accepted papers, no restriction on color and length (when justified by the content) in the online version, and a broad promotion of published papers. A prestigious group of editors selected from among the premier international researchers in their fields oversees the review process.
