With the recent success of computer vision and deep learning, remarkable progress has
been achieved on automatic personal recognition using vein biometrics. However, collecting …

Background The breeding of plants with superior traits and the improvement of cultivation
means are two essential ways to achieve yield growth and quality promotion. Phenotype …

We introduce a class of biologically-motivated algorithms for generating leaf venation
patterns. These algorithms simulate the interplay between three processes:(1) development …

In this article we present a new approach to topological design for steady-state heat
conduction. The method capitalizes on the use of a generative algorithm to represent …

Auxin regulates many aspects of plant development and behavior, including the initiation of
new outgrowth, patterning of vascular systems, control of branching, and responses to the …

Although many simulation models of natural phenomena have been developed to date, little
attention was given to a major contributor to the beauty of nature: the colorful patterns of …

This paper presents a new algorithm for modeling plant structures. The main motivation of
this algorithm is based on certain natural phenomena. A property of the plant structure is to …

为实现番茄形态的数字化设计与可视化模拟, 通过对番茄进行长期的观察测量与分析,
提出了对实测数据统计分析的基础上进行器官模板分类的几何建模方法. 对叶片和侧枝进行了 …

The appearance of computer generated plants has improved significantly due to advances
in both modeling and rendering. In this paper we describe a system that further improves the …

Realistic rendering of plants has practical value for digital plant research, where plant leaves
play an important role in the construction of virtual plants. The fact is that plant leaves are …
