Noise algorithm for scientific publication

[Anonymous]

Hi,

I would like to publish scientific publication where I have used models created in 3dsmax. Models are created using noise modifiers with fractal option.

To publish my work I need to know what is the algorithm behind the nosie modifier and fractal noise.

Is it a Perlin nosie?

Thank you in advance for your help.

Jakub.

Hello @Anonymous,

Yes, I do believe that it is a perlin noise. Neil Blevins has a pretty sweet noise reference on his website, I use it a lot in my projects.  You might find some more technical data there about other noise engines as well.

Hello @Anonymous,

I just wanted to follow up here, did this work out for you?  You can also find more info on the ADN if that helps.

Hi @Alfred.DeFlaminis,

The page you provided is nice but it doesn't give me any proof that this is exactly Perlin noise. You also wrote "I believe..." ;).

I will also ask at the ADN.

Anyway, thank you very much for your tips.

Hello @Anonymous,

That is the best option.  Generally speaking development questions are best answered there.  I hope your paper goes well and have a good week.

Best Regards,
