2. Perlin noise - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perlin_noise

   Perlin noise is a type of gradient noise developed by Ken Perlin in 1983. It has many uses, including but not limited to: procedurally generating terrain, applying pseudo-random changes to a variable, and assisting in the creation of image textures. It is most commonly implemented in two, three, or four dimensions, but can be defined for any ...

7. Parallax occlusion mapping - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallax_occlusion_mapping

   Parallax occlusion mapping (POM) is an enhancement of the parallax mapping technique. Parallax occlusion mapping is used to procedurally create 3D definition in textured surfaces, using a displacement map (similar to a topography map) instead of through the generation of new geometry. [1] This allows developers of 3D rendering applications to ...
