Geração Procedural de Ambientes Urbanos: Análise Comparativa de Técnicas para Modelagem de Infraestrutura Viária

Abstract

This final course project is dedicated to the study of "Procedural Generation of Urban Environments: Comparative Analysis of Techniques for Road Infrastructure Modeling". The general objective is to comparatively analyze the main Procedural Generation techniques applied to road infrastructure modeling, evaluating their computational efficiency, structural realism, and functional adaptability. The research investigates how different approaches (such as L-systems, graph-based algorithms, and agent-based methods) compare in order to identify the most suitable ones for applications in traffic simulations and urban planning. The methodology involved the implementation of representative prototypes, the development of an evaluation framework with quantitative metrics, and a systematic comparative analysis. The results aim to provide practical guidelines on the suitability of each technique for different contexts, contributing to the advancement of knowledge in this interdisciplinary field that combines computer graphics, artificial intelligence, and urban studies.
