2D Perlin噪音

Question

我已经完全掌握了3D中Perlin Noise的艺术，现在我正在尝试将相同的实现用于2D算法。 问题似乎在于选择我的渐变方向。 在3D中，我在均匀分布的方向上使用16个渐变，这非常有用。 在2D我想我会使用8个渐变。 上，下，左，右和四个对角线方向。

这是我得到的：

噪声的一般外观总是正确的，但正方形的边缘并不完全匹配。 我也尝试使用其他渐变或更少的渐变，但得到类似的结果。 在另一个例子中，您可以看到边缘有时会匹配，并且该区域的结果很好 -

当我不使用渐变而只是在4个角中的每个角落随机拾取的值之间进行插值时，我得到了正确的结果，这就是让我觉得渐变部分会弄乱它的原因。

这是我的代码：

//8 different gradient directions
private Point[] grads = new Point[] { 
    new Point(0, 1), new Point(1, 1), new Point(1, 0), new Point(1, -1), 
    new Point(0, -1), new Point(-1, -1), new Point(-1, 0), new Point(-1, 1),};

//takes the dot product of a gradient and (x, y)
private float dot2D(int i, float x, float y)
{
    return
        grads[i].X * x + grads[i].Y * y;
}

public float Noise2D(float x, float y)
{
    int
        ix = (int)(x),
        iy = (int)(y);

        x  = x - ix;
        y  = y - iy;

    float
        fx  = fade(x),
        fy  = fade(y);

        ix &= 255;
        iy &= 255;

    // here is where i get the index to look up in the list of 
    // different gradients.
    // hashTable is my array of 0-255 in random order
    int
        g00 = hashTable[ix +     hashTable[iy    ]],
        g10 = hashTable[ix + 1 + hashTable[iy    ]],
        g01 = hashTable[ix +     hashTable[iy + 1]],
        g11 = hashTable[ix + 1 + hashTable[iy + 1]];

    // this takes the dot product to find the values to interpolate between
    float
        n00 = dot2D(g00 & 7, x, y),
        n10 = dot2D(g10 & 7, x, y),
        n01 = dot2D(g01 & 7, x, y),
        n11 = dot2D(g11 & 7, x, y);

    // lerp() is just normal linear interpolation
    float
        y1 = lerp(fx, n00, n10),
        y2 = lerp(fx, n01, n11);
    return
        lerp(fy, y1, y2);
}

Answer 1

我有点匆忙，但这可能会有所帮助。 我将Perlin的参考实现改编为C＃。 对于2D，只需使用具有固定z参数的3D Noise（）函数。 （ public static float Noise(float x, float y, float z)朝向类的末尾。）

好的，我设法创建了一个有效的2D版本。 这是班级：

像这样称呼它：

    {
        var data = new float[width * height];

        /// track min and max noise value. Used to normalize the result to the 0 to 1.0 range.
        var min = float.MaxValue;
        var max = float.MinValue;

        /// rebuild the permutation table to get a different noise pattern. 
        /// Leave this out if you want to play with changing the number of octaves while 
        /// maintaining the same overall pattern.
        Noise2d.Reseed();

        var frequency = 0.5f;
        var amplitude = 1f;
        var persistence = 0.25f;

        for (var octave = 0; octave < octaves; octave++)
        {
            /// parallel loop - easy and fast.
            Parallel.For(0
                , width * height
                , (offset) =>
                {
                    var i = offset % width;
                    var j = offset / width;
                    var noise = Noise2d.Noise(i*frequency*1f/width, j*frequency*1f/height);
                    noise = data[j * width + i] += noise * amplitude;

                    min = Math.Min(min, noise);
                    max = Math.Max(max, noise);

                }
            );

            frequency *= 2;
            amplitude /= 2;
        }


        if (noiseTexture != null && (noiseTexture.Width != width || noiseTexture.Height != height))
        {
            noiseTexture.Dispose();
            noiseTexture = null;
        }
        if (noiseTexture==null)
        {
            noiseTexture = new Texture2D(Device, width, height, false, SurfaceFormat.Color);
        }

        var colors = data.Select(
            (f) =>
            {
                var norm = (f - min) / (max - min);
                return new Color(norm, norm, norm, 1);
            }
        ).ToArray();

        noiseTexture.SetData(colors);
    }

请注意，我使用了几个XNA结构（Vector2和Texture2D），但它们应该非常清楚它们的作用。

如果您想要更高频率（更“嘈杂”）的内容以及更少的八度音阶，请增加八度音程循环中使用的初始频率值。

此实现使用“改进的”Perlin噪声，它应该比标准版本快一点。 你可能还会看一下Simplex噪音，它在更高的尺寸上要快得多。

Answer 2

我不得不改变这个：

            n00 = dot2D(g00 & 7, x, y),
            n10 = dot2D(g10 & 7, x, y),
            n01 = dot2D(g01 & 7, x, y),
            n11 = dot2D(g11 & 7, x, y);

对此：

            n00 = dot2D(g00 & 7, x    , y    ),
            n10 = dot2D(g10 & 7, x - 1, y    ),
            n01 = dot2D(g01 & 7, x    , y - 1),
            n11 = dot2D(g11 & 7, x - 1, y - 1);

基本上只需要从x和y中减去1。

Answer 3

如果你将z的零值插入到你的3D方程式中并简单地按照数学运算来删除项，你会发现最终会得到一个更简单的方程式。

您的实现看起来与我正在使用的实现有所不同。

这是我正在使用的3D和2D功能的比较（在JavaScript中）：

noise3d: function(x, y, z)
{
    // Find unit cube that contains point.
    var X = Math.floor(x) & 255,
        Y = Math.floor(y) & 255,
        Z = Math.floor(z) & 255;
    // Find relative x,y,z of point in cube.
    x -= Math.floor(x);
    y -= Math.floor(y);
    z -= Math.floor(z);
    // Compute fade curves for each of x,y,z.
    var u = fade(x),
        v = fade(y),
        w = fade(z);
    // Hash coordinates of the corners.
    var A = p[X    ] + Y, AA = p[A] + Z, AB = p[A + 1] + Z,
        B = p[X + 1] + Y, BA = p[B] + Z, BB = p[B + 1] + Z;

    // Add blended results from 8 corners of cube.
    return scale(
        lerp(
            w,
            lerp(
                v,
                lerp(
                    u,
                    grad(p[AA], x, y, z),
                    grad(p[BA], x - 1, y, z)
                ),
                lerp(
                    u,
                    grad(p[AB], x, y - 1, z),
                    grad(p[BB], x - 1, y - 1, z)
                )
            ),
            lerp(
                v,
                lerp(
                    u,
                    grad(p[AA + 1], x, y, z - 1),
                    grad(p[BA + 1], x - 1, y, z - 1)
                ),
                lerp(
                    u,
                    grad(p[AB + 1], x, y - 1, z - 1),
                    grad(p[BB + 1], x - 1, y - 1, z - 1)
                )
            )
        )
    );
}

2D版本涉及较少的计算。

noise2d: function(x, y)
{
    // Find unit square that contains point.
    var X = Math.floor(x) & 255,
        Y = Math.floor(y) & 255;
    // Find relative x,y of point in square.
    x -= Math.floor(x);
    y -= Math.floor(y);
    // Compute fade curves for each of x,y.
    var u = fade(x),
        v = fade(y);
    // Hash coordinates of the corners.
    var A = p[X    ] + Y, AA = p[A], AB = p[A + 1],
        B = p[X + 1] + Y, BA = p[B], BB = p[B + 1];

    // Add blended results from the corners.
    return scale(
            lerp(
                v,
                lerp(
                    u,
                    grad(p[AA], x, y, 0),
                    grad(p[BA], x - 1, y, 0)
                ),
                lerp(
                    u,
                    grad(p[AB], x, y - 1, 0),
                    grad(p[BB], x - 1, y - 1, 0)
                )
            )
    );
}
