Introducing InfiniteDiffusion, my independent paper accepted to #SIGGRAPH2026!
I have one RTX 3090 Ti. No funding, advisors, or team. By day I'm a new grad SWE at Walmart.
The paper has two main contributions:
- InfiniteDiffusion: a new approach to infinite generation with diffusion models.
- Terrain Diffusion: the world’s first learned procedural terrain generator.
Here’s why this matters, and how they are connected. 🧵
Playing around with an accumulating wetness map on terrain. This has multiple uses - it emphasises small transient streams that don't have enough data resolution otherwise, and also suppresses vegetation growth in riverbeds over time.
Artemis 2 astronauts return from a fly-by of The Moon, in yet another brave & successful endeavour by human race!
