Procedural Content Generation via Knowledge Transformation (PCG-KT)
IEEE Transactions on GamesWe introduce the concept of Procedural Content Generation via Knowledge Transformation (PCG-KT), a new lens and framework for characterizing PCG methods and approaches in which content generation is enabled by the process of knowledge transformation -- transforming knowledge derived from one domain in order to apply it in another. Our work is motivated

2025 IEEE/CVF Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition (CVPR)Procedural Content Generation (PCG) is powerful in creating high-quality 3D contents, yet controlling it to produce desired shapes is difficult and often requires extensive parameter tuning. Inverse Procedural Content Generation aims to automatically find the best parameters under the input condition. However, existing sampling-based and neural network-
