Procedural generation from a single example by wave function collapse https://t.co/NcRn5iIOFz

@gurenyov @googlemaps No, it's another thing

[Maxim Gumin @ExUtumno]

Cool work! Apparently, you can generate locally-similar shapes using graph grammars.

[Paul Merrell @paul_merrell42]

For many years, I've been developing a new procedural modeling technique that overcomes many of the limitations of my PhD work on Model Synthesis and WFC. It's a completely new approach that uses graph grammars. It doesn't use tiles. I just presented it at SIGGRAPH!

Wave Function Collapse is quite fun!

[Felix Turner @felixturner]

I built a procedural medieval island map generator using Wave Function Collapse on hex grids. 4,100 cells, 900 possible states per cell, 60fps on mobile. Wrote up the whole process with lessons learned. Links below 👇 #threejs #webgpu

@lerandomart @monkantony_tez @zzznah @MIT @medialab Such a great conversation! And somehow I never connected NeRFs with CPPNs before

Building a blazing fast ⚡ Wave Function Collapse solver for three.js

Sharing some technical notes on how I’m squeezing performance out of every frame.

(WIP 🚧 - but already interactive and ultra-fast!)

A while ago, I posted that browser-based editor that creates isometric maps using Wave Function Collapse (WFC).

I forgot to share most important thing of all, the url😖!!

@PierreTerdiman Didn't know you are into verifiable theorem proving! https://t.co/0Pnh7z9oby

[algoritmic @algoritmic]

MarkovJunior is a probabilistic programming language where programs are combinations of rewrite rules and inference is performed via constraint propagation https://t.co/tv8KuWMkX4

@elliotokay Thank you!

[Maxim Gumin @ExUtumno]

@lisyarus I have a "seq", yes, but it is not a Behavior Tree sequence, it's a simple imperative language sequence: execute one instruction right after another. Nothing asynchronous.

[Maxim Gumin @ExUtumno]

@lisyarus Just write AI as code in a small domain-specific language

[Maxim Gumin @ExUtumno]

@azrhyga Thanks!

Procedural voxel models synthesized with the wave function collapse algorithm https://t.co/NcRn5iIOFz and rendered in #MagicaVoxel

[Samuel Lundsten @SamuelLundsten]

Tried porting the generator to Godot. No fancy tiles nor collapse heuristic, but a navigability flood-fill, placing trees at unreachable tiles.

[Maxim Gumin @ExUtumno]

@fchollet Tolkien-like fading of magic can be interpreted as the second law of thermodynamics. Magic energy starts concentrated, and then dissipates over the environment and becomes much harder to harvest and use.

@boris_brave Yes, if it's recognizable + there are public materials + I know about it (obviously), then I mention it on github https://t.co/XlH4xPovxC

@boris_brave No Man's Sky, apparently: https://t.co/fX9wcsjMRD

[Marian @marian42_]

@arnicas Yes, we use it to generate the buildings in planetary settlements.

[Maxim Gumin @ExUtumno]

@boris_brave You mean finished commercial games, and not something that people put on itch io for free? There is Matrix Awakens.
