Make patterns with AI https://magnogen.net/Graidients

This is the source code for a section of my website. You're welcome to snoop around to see how it works, maybe even make a pull request! (I've been wanting to add an interesting UI!)

How it works

Click on the image, press the Enter key, or refresh the page to regenerate a random Neural Network and start the drawing process.

The algorithm works by feeding the X and Y coordinate into the neural network, and using the 3 of the 5 outputs for the red, green and blue value at that pixel. The other 2 values come into play when you enable domain warping, that just offsets the input coordinate by that amount and then regenerates at that position (hence why it takes slightly longer).

Different kinds of Networks with different activation functions produce different aesthetics.

Plans for the future

Mostly UI stuff, you don't have any control over things otherwise.

• [x] A way to redraw the image (click it? a keybind?)

  Click the image, or press the Enter Key

• [ ] Network customisation
  • [ ] Number of hidden layers, and nodes per layer should be changable
  • [ ] A way to change the inputs, like adding a Random value for a dithery effect
  • idk stuff like that
• [x] Rendering the image at custom resolutions.
