Using interactive evolution to discover camouflage patterns

ABSTRACT

This poster describes an abstract computation model of the evolution of camouflage in nature. Evolution is represented by genetic programming. Camouflage patterns are represented by procedural texture synthesis. A 2D environment is represented by a supplied photo. A predator is represented by a human's visual perception, interacting through a graphical user interface.
