A Synthesized 3DCG Contents Generator Using IEC Framework

3 dimensional computer graphics (3DCG) becomes an easily accessible technology for general public. Average PC users can design and embed high quality 3DCG images and animations in their work. They must, however, study text books and related web pages with captured 2D images for understanding 3DCG theories and graphics programming to become a good designer. They must also master complex 3D operations specific to a dedicated software tool for acquiring appropriate authoring skills. These efforts require enormous amount of time and impose a heavy burden on the users. To solve the problem, we have been developing a 3DCG learning support system enabling the users to intuitively acquire knowledge and skills necessary for 3DCG contents authoring and graphics programming. In this paper, we describe the concept, implementation method, and evaluation of the proposed system.

We propose a method to support intuitive coloring and texture mapping for designing of 3D shapes of computer graphics in this paper. This method generates multiple candidate models applying various kinds of texture patterns and allows users to evaluate them sensitively. The technique called Interactive Evolutionary Computation (IEC) helps them to easily find the pleasant color texture pattern for 3D graphic shapes. To respond the users' evaluation quickly, texture-mapping procedure should be easy. In this method, 3D shapes are reconstructed to a simple representation and applied for simple image warp functions.

“…Framework of iGA can work effectively for such a searching problem [1], [11], [12] and provides a powerful function to support users to create a desirable 3D shape with the most pleasant texture pattern. Since the impression of texture patterns largely depends on users' sensibilities, they are not able to search the most pleasant texture pattern [13], [14], [15], [16]. There are various combinations of parameters to acquire the pleasant texture pattern.…”

This paper proposes an interactive texture design method to obtain adequate texture patterns for 3D computer graphics shapes. Texture mapping is widely used to improve the visual richness of surface appearances. Designing texture patterns can be a problem to search an adequate pattern for the 3D shapes in the scene physically and psychologically. So it is required to supply intuitive and simple method for texture pattern designing. We apply interactive genetic algorithm (iGA) framework to find the pleasant color texture pattern for 3D surfaces. This method generates multiple texture patterns obtained by various image processing and allows users to evaluate them sensitively and users can stop and fix some feature.
