  • Publication number: 20240169102
    Abstract: Provided herein is a modeling method for complex tree-like objects, which relates to the field of computer graphics. The method includes: calculating an average tree for a set of complex tree-like objects, constructing a probability distribution model for the set of complex tree-like objects, and generating the complex tree-like objects through random sampling or specific parameter constraints. It proposes a modeling method for complex tree-like objects, such as three-dimensional trees and human nervous systems. This allows complex tree-like objects to be synthesized either in a completely random manner or through specific parameter constraints, thereby solving the problem of high modeling complexity and the inability to effectively perform real-time modeling of complex tree-like objects in existing methods.
