Patent 11410361 was granted and assigned to Adobe Inc. on August, 2022 by the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
Procedural model digital content editing techniques are described that overcome the limitations of conventional techniques to make procedural models available for interaction by a wide range of users without requiring specialized knowledge and do so without “breaking” the underlying model. In the techniques described herein, an inverse procedural model system receives a user input that specifies an edit to digital content generated by a procedural model. Input parameters from these candidate input parameters are selected by the system which cause the digital content generated by the procedural model to incorporate the edit.
