public class GeneticDrawingApp
extends org.jdesktop.application.SingleFrameApplication

This is the main class of the Mona Lisa Painting Problem. It starts the application. Please notice that this is the Genetic Programming version. Another implementation of the problem is done with Genetic Algorithms. Please see package examples.monalisa. The Mona Lisa Painting Problem is to find a number of polygons that form a picture which corresponds as good as possible to a given input picture. Originally, the Mona Lisa from Leonardo da Vinci was chosen as input.

See http://rogeralsing.com/2008/12/07/genetic-programming-evolution-of-mona-lisa/ for the initiator's blog of the problem, Roger Alsing.

Constructor Detail

GeneticDrawingApp

public GeneticDrawingApp()

Method Detail

startup

protected void startup()

At startup create and show the main frame of the application.

Specified by:

startup in class org.jdesktop.application.Application

configureWindow

protected void configureWindow(java.awt.Window root)

This method is to initialize the specified window by injecting resources. Windows shown in our application come fully initialized from the GUI builder, so this additional configuration is not needed.

Overrides:

configureWindow in class org.jdesktop.application.SingleFrameApplication

getApplication

public static GeneticDrawingApp getApplication()

A convenient static getter for the application instance.

Returns:

the instance of GeneticDrawingApp

main

public static void main(java.lang.String[] args)

Main method launching the application.
