Abstract

A method for fractal-darwinian object generation consists of the steps of: preparing a fractal object library including predetermined objects and associated rules of property and context, forming objects and comparing the formed objects with the objects in the fractal object library. By using the property rules, a local classification likelihood is allocated to each formed object. Thereupon, by using the context rules for each object, a respective fractal classification likelihood is formed. For optimisation of the fractal classification likelihood, alteration rules are applied to the objects. The above method is carried out iteratively, whereby a process of gradual optimisation takes place.
