CityGen: Infinite and Controllable 3D City Layout Generation
City layout generation has recently gained significant attention. The goal of this task is to automatically generate the layout of a city scene, including elements such as roads, buildings, vegetation, as well as other urban infrastructures. Previous methods using VAEs or GANs for 3D city layout generation offer limited diversity and constrained interactivity, only allowing users to selectively regenerate parts of the layout, which greatly limits customization. In this paper, we propose CityGen, a novel end-to-end framework for infinite, diverse and controllable 3D city layout generation.First, we propose an outpainting pipeline to extend the local layout to an infinite city layout. Then, we utilize a multi-scale diffusion model to generate diverse and controllable local semantic layout patches. The extensive experiments show that CityGen achieves state-of-the-art (SOTA) performance under FID and KID in generating an infinite and controllable 3D city layout. CityGen demonstrates promising applicability in fields like smart cities, urban planning, and digital simulation.
