TY - JOUR AU - Benes, Bedrich AB - Interactive Example-Based Urban Layout Synthesis Daniel G. Aliaga Carlos A. Vanegas Purdue University Bedřich Beneš Structure New Synthesized Street Network New Layout with Reused Imagery Example Urban Fragment Images Figure 1. Urban Layout Synthesis. First, our method extracts the street network and per-parcel aerial-view images from real-world urban layouts. Then, using an example-based approach new layouts are interactively created by synthesizing streets and images based on data from the example layout fragments. Abstract We present an interactive system for synthesizing urban layouts by example. Our method simultaneously performs both a structurebased synthesis and an image-based synthesis to generate a complete urban layout with a plausible street network and with aerial-view imagery. Our approach uses the structure and image data of real-world urban areas and a synthesis algorithm to provide several high-level operations to easily and interactively generate complex layouts by example. The user can create new urban layouts by a sequence of operations such as join, expand, and blend without being concerned about low-level structural details. Further, the ability to blend example urban layout fragments provides a powerful way to generate new synthetic content. We demonstrate our system by creating urban layouts using example fragments from several real-world TI - Interactive example-based urban layout synthesis DA - 2008-12-10 UR - https://www.deepdyve.com/lp/association-for-computing-machinery/interactive-example-based-urban-layout-synthesis-M2G10Sv5tB VL - 27 IS - 5 DP - DeepDyve ER -
