Procedural 3D Caves, Clouds and Architecture Generation Method Based on Shape Grammar and Morphing

This paper presents a new procedural 3D modelconstructionalgorithm that benefits from a combination ofdiscrete and continuous modeling approaches. Our algorithmmodels complex scene components such as caves, architecturalbuildings, and clouds. The method combines the discretedescriptiveness of shape grammars with the continuous flexibilityof shape morphing. This combination allows for a modelingapproach that can be controlled by a morphing parameter toproduce various types of geometry. In the paper, we focus on thedescription of the algorithm while also showing its capabilities ingenerating complex scene components
