MONET: The Minor Body Generator Tool at DART Lab

Sensors
Minor bodies exhibit considerable variability in shape and surface morphology, posing challenges for spacecraft operations, which are further compounded by highly non-linear dynamics and limited communication windows with Earth.

Procedural generation of mediterranean environments

2016 39th International Convention on Information and Communication Technology, Electronics and Microelectronics (MIPRO), 2016
This paper describes an overall process of procedural generation of natural environments through terrain generation, texturing and scattering of terrain cover. Although described process can be used to create various types of environments, focus of this paper has been put on Mediterranean which is somewhat specific and has not yet received any ...

Procedural Puzzle Generation: A Survey [PDF]

IEEE Transactions on Games, 2020
Procedural content generation (PCG) for games has existed since the 1980s and is becoming increasingly important for creating game worlds, backstory, and characters across many genres, in particular, open-world games, such as Minecraft (2011) and No Man's Sky (2016). A particular challenge faced by such games is that the content and/or gameplay may

Procedural Generation for Divination and Inspiration [PDF]

International Conference on the Foundations of Digital Games, 2020
This paper presents a series of experiments that map the expressive space of specific procedural generation techniques with playful aleatory interventions. They are tools for inspiration based on divinatory practices. This paper connects these ancient procedural techniques to contemporary technologies like Twitter bots. We challenge the limits of these

Procedural Attack! Procedural Generation for Populated Virtual Cities: A Survey

International Journal of Serious Games, 2017
On the one hand, creating rich virtual worlds "by hand" like in the game Grand Theft Auto V is hugely expensive and limited to large studios. On the other hand, procedural content generation (PCG) allows tiny teams to create huge worlds like Hello Games ...
