Terrains are a crucial component of three‐dimensional scenes and are present in many
Computer Graphics applications. Terrain modeling methods focus on capturing landforms in …

Procedural modelling deals with (semi‐) automatic content generation by means of a
program or procedure. Among other advantages, its data compression and the potential to …

Despite more than thirty years of research in terrain modeling, authoring virtual terrains by
using contemporary techniques remains a demanding task. One reason for this difficulty is …

We present a framework that allows quick and intuitive modeling of terrains using concepts
inspired by hydrology. The terrain is generated from a simple initial sketch, and its …

In order to connect haptic feedback with visual content in treadmill VR exergames for getting
more immersive user experiences, we present a novel optimization-based approach to …

We introduce a novel framework for interactive landscape authoring that supports bi-
directional feedback between erosion and vegetation simulation. Vegetation and terrain …

At large scale, landscapes result from the combination of two major processes: tectonics
which generate the main relief through crust uplift, and weather which accounts for erosion …

This paper introduces a method to generate a three-dimensional (3D) virtual model of an
imaginary city from a single street-view image to represent the appearance of the city in a …

The challenge in terrain synthesis for virtual environments is to provide a combination of
precise user control over landscape form, with interactive response and visually realistic …

In this paper, we present a simple and efficient method to represent terrains as elevation
functions built from linear combinations of landform features (atoms). These features can be …
