Manipulation of non-linear IFS attractors using genetic programming

Non-linear Iterated Function Systems (IFSs) are very powerful mathematical objects related to fractal theory, that can be used in order to generate (or model) very irregular shapes. We investigate how genetic programming techniques can be efficiently exploited in order to generate randomly or interactively artistic "fractal" 2D shapes. Two applications are presented for different types of nonlinear IFSs: interactive generation of mixed IFS attractors using a classical GP scheme; and random generation of Polar IFS attractors based on an "individual" approach of GP.
