Li: 'Make It Tall' Worked, 'Make It Hollow' Didn't — Mapping Which Requests a Neural Generator Honors — Fukai Reads
A paper by Alex Chengyu Li on neural building generation. A generator trained on 10,310 Minecraft builds was given six condition tokens, and responsiveness was measured on 14 properties: 9 moved a lot, 4 a little, and only the share of air inside barely moved. How easily un-requested properties move was predicted from training data with rank correlation 0.879, but on just 10 properties — too few to generalize yet.
