Multifractal signatures of AI, animal, nature, cave, and human art

2026-08-11

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Using multifractal analysis, we compared texture complexity across 142 images in six categories: AI-generated images, animal paintings (elephant, chimpanzee, dog), prehistoric cave art, human paintings, mathematical fractals, and natural photographs. AI produced the widest multifractal spectra of any category, exceeding both natural photographs and deterministic fractals. Animal paintin...
