[–] shedletsky 11y ago ↗ "We present the first 3D algorithm capable of answering the question: what would a Mandelbrot-like set in the shape of a bunny look like?"I have questions, Science has answers. Science!
[–] smlacy 11y ago ↗ Does this have any practical uses? [–] iwwr 11y ago ↗ Instead of storing the coordinates for the object mesh, store the "address" in 4d space of the Julia representation? [–] fsk 11y ago ↗ For 2D images, fractals can be used for image compression. I don't know if any of the popular image compression algorithms use this method. [–] anon_adderlan 11y ago ↗ Practical implies you value some objectives over others. What would those be?
