Hi netters, Use of Plex language in pattern recognition is very well known. However, does anybody know of any application of Plex language in Solid/Geometrical modeling. Can anybody through some light about this. Any reference to lead to some information will also be highly appreciated. thanks in advance. ---- amal. -- ******************************************************************************* * I will be at war with you until death.

Look at the following reference, which is the only PLEX-grammar based modeler I have seen in the literature: W. Lin and K. Fu, "A Syntactic Approach to 3-D Object Representation", IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence, 1984 PAMI-6(3), pp. 351-365 There are a number of other formal languages that have been used for shape representation, notably the shape grammars of Stiny (UCLA), the algebraic and node label control graph grammars that I have used for shape representation and enumeration, the structure grammars of Woodbury (CMU), and various attributed grammars.
