I'm trying to formalize the rewrite system we use to generate these plants in Idu, which I would describe as a probabilistic grammar. I will also have to use some type theory to do this, but what are some good resources on all types of rewrite systems?

The problem is that there are bits of this and that, and as I think about rewrite systems in terms of the research I'm doing at work, I also don't really have a proper anthology in my head. So I would love to hear what are everyone's favorite reading materials on rewrite systems!

haha yeah everyone in our group knows about different rewrite systems, I am just putting it out there to start a discussion basically about how one could learn about all different rewrite systems out there to make sure they don't reinvent the wheel. my rabbithole was L-systems

I only remember the probabilistic shape grammars from β€œProcedural Modelling of Buildings”, a paper which I found super fascinating and intriguing, but really confused me back in the day… hence temporarily diverting me me from art and illustration stuff towards learning PL stuff.
