Constraint-Based Tile Generators is BorisTheBrave's October 2021 survey unifying WaveFunctionCollapse and Model Synthesis as constraint-based tile generators that fill a grid under hard local rules.
Boris organizes variants by model (adjacency versus overlapping patches), constraint inference from samples, labels, or tile borders, solvers from arc consistency to Z3, cell and tile heuristics, contradiction handling, and non-square grids.
