摘要
虚拟植物是随着信息技术进步而迅速发展起来的新兴研究领域,已成为计算机领域的研究热点之一.虚拟植物就是在计算机上模拟植物的连续生长过程.本文介绍了若干种常见的虚拟植物建模方法(如L系统、粒子系统、分形方法、IFS等)和生成软件(如AMAP、Xfrog、Plant Studio等),分析比较了它们的特点.并对该领域的研究现况及发展前景作了简述.
The research of virtual plant becomes one of the hottest areas in computer science with the development of information technique. 'Virtual plants' are computer abstractions which contain sufficient spatial information for realistic images of successive growth stages to be generated. In this paper, several typical computer models and software tools of plant simulation are introduced and their distinguishing features are analyzed. Finally, the current status and the future of virtual plant research are summarized.
