Semantic Units and Relationships
The Coherence Field is designed to capture the essence of 3D objects by breaking them down into smaller, abstract components: Color semantic units. These units can be thought of as "meaningful" building blocks that convey information about the object's properties (e.g., color).
Relationships between these semantic units are crucial in determining the final rendered image. The CF tracks relationships like Above, Below, LeftOf, RightOf, and AttachedTo, which seem to govern the spatial arrangement of the Color units.
Rendering and Visualization
The render_to_array
method is responsible for transforming the Cohesion Field into a 2D RGB array, effectively "painting" the image. This process involves calculating the position of each semantic unit based on its relationships with others (via calculate_position
) and then drawing the unit onto the array using its color information (via draw_semantic_unit
).
