Editing Procedural and Non-Procedural Assets

The creation of 2D and 3D assets is a central component of many computer graphics applications, from industrial design to film and video game production. Despite the growing demand for high-quality digital assets, matching a desired target appearance remains a time-consuming and labor-intensive process. This talk presents a series of methods aimed at improving controllability in both procedural and non-procedural asset editing. First, inverse procedural modeling approaches for vector patterns and procedural implicit shapes are introduced, allowing parameter estimation from examples or through in-viewport edits. Finally, a method for structured texture synthesis is presented, expanding a small user-designed sketch into large-scale, high-quality and tileable textures through a diffusion model pipeline. Together, these approaches aim to make asset creation more controllable, efficient, and accessible for both novice and experienced artists.
