Abstract :
In this paper the application of two dimensional picture grammars for generating traditional extit{Sohrai} floor design of extit{Santal} is explored. Context-free picture grammars are able to yield most of the floor designs. Based on the concept of radial languages, a Q-i (quadrant-i) radial language model is proposed in this work. Further, the tiling operators are used to generate the composite two-dimensional words.
Keywords :
Radial language, Q-i radial language, picture grammar, floor designs.
