Intelligent scene modeling

Well known drawbacks of traditional geometric scene modelers make difficult, and even sometimes impossible, intuitive design of 3D scenes. In this chapter we will discuss on intelligent scene modeling, that is modeling using intelligent techniques during the designing process and thus allowing intuitive scene design. The main presented modeling technique is declarative modeling [1], with a special attention to the used Artificial Intelligence techniques, in order to produce efficient and easy to use scene modelers.
