Application of Interactive Evolutionary Computing in Personalized Interior Design

Design is a complex and clever process with multiple concepts attempting to explain it. To validate ideas and quantitatively characterize the design process, design experiments, and data analysis are required and predictable. Applying data analysis in design experiments can be challenging, and data are often underutilized. In this study, we develop an experimentation Interactive Evolutionary Computing Design (IECD) model using Upgraded Particle Swarm Optimization (UPSO) within the personalized interior design to iteratively analyze the new color combinations based on 116 designer’s preferences. The study proposed data-infused research into interior design via experimental techniques and the proposal system is evaluated, with additional feedback collected from experimented 116 designers, and data visualization analysis using Color Histogram Analysis and Auto encoders for data’s structure and patterns of the data, thus enhancing user preferences. A proposal system is developed using the collected data to suggest design options that align with individual user preferences and then integrated into the IECD framework to generate personalized design solutions that are more efficient and intelligent. The results are the effectiveness of data analysis and visualization in revealing design patterns and the impact of the data-infused IECD system to enhance the personalization and efficiency of interior design solutions. The IECD system enhances interior design efficiency and personalization through a proposal system, revealing design patterns, and aligning options with individual user preferences.

Research on optimization method of landscape design based on computer algorithms

Traditional landscape design primarily depends on the experience and subjective judgment of designers, lacking systematic and scientific algorithmic support, making it difficult to find the optimal solution in large-scale and complex scenes. This article proposes an interactive genetic algorithm for landscape design, which searches for the optimal solution in large-scale design spaces and improves design efficiency. Collect a large amount of landscape-related data, preprocess it, and ensure its quality, and ensure the quality of the data. Introduce elements such as plants, water bodies, and hard structures to initially design the space, extract features from landscape design images, and perform 3D reconstruction to obtain richer design space information. Generate initial design schemes using genetic algorithms and introduce subjective opinions from designers through interactive processes. The experimental results show that the average aesthetic score of interactive genetic algorithm for landscape design optimization is 9.0, and the average design time of interactive genetic algorithm is 34.5 days. Introducing the subjective opinions of designers into landscape design optimization based on heritage algorithms can effectively improve design aesthetics and shorten the total design time.

Research on Oriental Artistic Conception of Architectural Space of Suzhou Garden Ecology Based on Interactive Genetic Algorithm

Ancient Chinese gardening has a long history, and the culture contained in it is extensive and profound. If it is analyzed with today’s spatial characteristics, it still conforms to the norms of scale, proportion, perspective relationship, spatial sequence, etc., so it is well-deserved as a classic. Suzhou gardens enjoy a good reputation in the history of gardens in the world. They have the artistic characteristics and culture of typical oriental gardens. Suzhou gardens have unique poetic and picturesque meanings. They are unique and beautiful humanistic landscapes among gardens in the world. The world cultural heritage with scientific value has far-reaching significance for contemporary Chinese architectural practice. Although many gardening theories in ancient China are different from today’s design methods, we can still find common ground by analyzing and comparing classical gardens according to the rules of scale, proportion, perspective relationship, and spatial sequence in modern design. Therefore, this paper will take Suzhou classical gardens as the research object, and construct a garden architectural space optimization model based on interactive genetic algorithm, and use quantitative means to find the rules of spatial scale and the oriental artistic conception in the garden architectural space. The information fusion model is used to quantify the garden landscape, in order to enhance the intuitive perception to a rational level, so that the means and methods of creating a comfortable and beautiful space in Suzhou classical gardens in the past can be continued in today’s garden design.

Leveraging Interactive Evolutionary Computation to Induce Serendipity in Informal Learning

Serendipitous learning, characterized by the discovery of new insights and unexpected connections, is recognized as a valuable educational experience that stimulates critical thinking and self-regulated learning. While there have been limited efforts to develop serendipity-oriented recommender systems in education, these systems often fall short in supporting learners’ agency, that is, the sense of ownership and control over their learning journey. In this paper, we introduce an Interactive Evolutionary Computation (IEC)-driven recommender system designed to empower learners by granting them control over their learning experiences while offering recommendations that are both novel and unexpected yet aligned with their interests. Our proposed system leverages an Interactive Genetic Algorithm in conjunction with Knowledge Graphs to dynamically recommend learning content, with a focus on the history of scientific discoveries. We conducted both numerical simulations and experimental evaluations to assess the effectiveness of our content optimization algorithm and the impact of our approach on inducing serendipity in informal learning environments. The results indicate that a significant number of participants found certain recommended learning materials to be engaging and surprising, providing evidence that our system has the potential to facilitate serendipitous learning experiences within informal learning contexts.

Digital toy design: A doll head modeling method based on model matching and texture generation

With the development of technology and the improvement of living standards, consumer demand for toy products has also changed. More people are showing strong interest and demand for digital toy products. However, in the current digital toy design process, extracting the hairstyle features of the doll’s head is still a challenge. Therefore, this study extracts the two-dimensional contour of the target hairstyle and matches it with the template hairstyle in the database. Then, combining hair texture information and hairstyle structural features, fine geometric texture details are generated on the hairstyle mesh surface. Finally, a doll head modeling method based on model matching and texture generation is proposed. The results showed that the hairstyle of the Generative model was almost the same as the real hairstyle. Compared with the modeling methods based on interactive genetic algorithm and digital image, the average F1 value of this method was 0.95, and the mean absolute error was the smallest. The accuracy of the target model modeling was 95.4%, and the area enclosed by the receiver operating characteristic curve and coordinate axis was 0.965. In summary, the doll head modeling method based on model matching and texture generation proposed in this study can generate high-precision and realistic hairstyle models corresponding to the hairstyle. The overall shape and local geometric details of the hairstyle can meet the needs of 3D printing, providing certain reference significance for hairstyle reconstruction.

Therefore, this paper combines folk art elements with modern digital processing technology and interior design of image processing, and at the same time, the improved interactive genetic algorithm introduces users' subjective evaluation into the design process, allowing users to participate in the design work. Experiments show that the algorithm can effectively meet the personalized needs of customers in the process of graphic design. It has played a positive role in the integration of national art and modern interior design and the embodiment of national characteristics in modern multimedia design.

Wardrobe furniture color design based on interactive genetic algorithm

With the change in consumption environment and habits, the active feedback from users on online shopping platforms serves as a valuable source of information for analyzing user demand. Color design is an important factor in shaping product style and influencing user’s purchase decisions. This study combines the Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) and an interactive genetic algorithm (IGA) to investigate the usability of the interactive genetic color selection method for wardrobe color design. Firstly, the LDA model was employed to cluster online review data to identify customer requirements (CRs), then summarize the perceptual evaluation factors (EFs) of color selection. Subsequently, the color selection information from market examples was used as reference to establish the initial population, and the interactive genetic color design process was completed with CorelDraw. Then, the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method was employed to evaluate the color scheme generated from IGA. The empirical analysis demonstrated that the interactive genetic color selection method can effectively enhance both efficiency and satisfaction in wardrobe design. This study has substantial implications for both theory and practice in the field of wardrobe design and offers designers novel design concepts and methodologies.

The Specific Application and Meaning Expression of Folk Art in Urban Landscape Design Under the Optimized Interactive Genetic Algorithm

In the major cities with many high-rise buildings in contemporary China, land resources are becoming more and more scarce, and the urban ecological environment is in urgent need of recycling, and due to the blind imitation of Western culture and design mode and the neglect of China traditional regional culture, the urban landscape lacks interaction, resonance, and sense of belonging with citizens, and the phenomenon of landscape similarity emerges in various cities, focusing on the landscape space of urban complexes. There are also these problems. Urban residents urgently need a third space that can adjust their physical, mental, and spiritual needs. How to design an urban complex landscape that meets the aesthetic needs and humanistic needs of contemporary cities and has regional characteristics has become the first important task of my research. Folk art is an artistic treasure created by the working people in their production and life. Folk art is the embodiment of cultural regionality and the foundation of national culture. It awakens people’s awareness of the importance of local culture, awakens people’s sense of belonging, and is closer to the local public life. Today, the living soil and social and humanistic environment of folk art are in the process of urbanization in China, and there is a trend of gradual disappearance of lifestyle changes. How to make the contemporary urban complex landscape an organic soil for the survival, expression, application, and development of folk art is an important task in contemporary urban landscape design. Based on optimization, related concepts such as symbols, folk art symbols, urban complexes, urban complex landscape design, etc. have been sorted out. The relevant experimental results show that the construction land accuracy of the logistic regression model based on genetic algorithm has increased from 78.0% to 85.3%. kappa increased from 74.5% to 81.2%. Research shows that the logistic regression parameter optimization method based on genetic algorithm has better simulation effect than the conventional logistic regression method and is more suitable for the situation of unbalanced data distribution and many data features in the simulation of large-scale urban land dynamic changes.

Design of geometric flower pattern for clothing based on deep learning and interactive genetic algorithm

Abstract Geometric and floral models are an important part of clothing and have been used for thousands of years. Although the styles of geometric models and flower models have undergone changes over the centuries, they are still one of the important factors of clothing patterns, the important carrier of aesthetics, and the manifestation of people’s spiritual views and cultural needs. The development and application of digital printing technology have freed people from excessive dependence on sewing and embroidery processes. Therefore, while deeply studying the design of clothing patterns, this work sorted and analyzed the geometric flower models of clothing through interactive genetic algorithms, and optimized programming to enrich the models of clothing with geometric textures. The results showed that the deviation value of geometric flower pattern design was constantly decreasing, while the optimal strategy value was constantly increasing. The mean deviation value was 0.82, which was a decrease of 0.21 on the seventh day compared with the first day; the mean value of the optimal strategy value was 0.84, which was an increase of 0.19 on the seventh day compared with the first day. The visual effect and creativity of the clothing flower pattern design under the interactive genetic algorithm are better than the traditional flower pattern design, and the visual effect and creativity under the interactive genetic algorithm are 9% higher than the traditional one.

3D Vase Design Based on Interactive Genetic Algorithm and Enhanced XGBoost Model

The human–computer interaction attribute of the interactive genetic algorithm (IGA) allows users to participate in the product design process for which the product needs to be evaluated, and requiring a large number of evaluations would lead to user fatigue. To address this issue, this paper utilizes an XGBoost proxy model modified by particle swarm optimization and the graphical interaction mechanism (GIM) to construct an improved interactive genetic algorithm (PXG-IGA), and then the PXG-IGA is applied to 3D vase design. Firstly, the 3D vase shape has been designed by using a bicubic Bézier surface, and the individual genetic code is binary and includes three parts: the vase control points, the vase height, and the texture picture. Secondly, the XGBoost evaluation of the proxy model has been constructed by collecting user online evaluation data, and the particle swarm optimization algorithm has been used to optimize the hyperparameters of XGBoost. Finally, the GIM has been introduced after several generations, allowing users to change product styles independently to better meet users’ expectations. Based on the PXG-IGA, an online 3D vase design platform has been developed and compared to the traditional IGA, KD tree, random forest, and standard XGBoost proxy models. Compared with the traditional IGA, the number of evaluations has been reduced by 58.3% and the evaluation time has been reduced by 46.4%. Compared with other proxy models, the accuracy of predictions has been improved up from 1.3% to 20.2%. To a certain extent, the PXG-IGA reduces users’ operation fatigue and provides new ideas for improving user experience and product design efficiency.

In addition, the improved human-computer interaction interface scored higher than 0.8 in terms of usability, reliability, customizability, and interactive feedback. This means that the improved interface can better meet user needs and provide a better user experience. This study shows that the indoor space layout design method ground on differential evolution algorithm and the improved human-computer interaction interface can significantly improve user satisfaction and user experience. This has brought more efficient and convenient solutions to the field of spatial design.

With the rapid and stable growth of China's economy and the rapid development of urban construction, urban complexes have sprung up in major cities. The lag in urban ecological environmental protection, maintenance and construction has brought great pressure to the needs of today's urban residents in terms of life, safety, and sense of belonging.

Reference Image Aided Color Matching Design Based on Interactive Genetic Algorithm

This paper proposes an interactive genetic algorithm to assist designers in color selection and match different color combinations extracted. Then, based on the CorelDraw development environment, this paper establishes a graphic-based man-machine dialogue model. Through simulation experiments, genetic algorithms such as random selection, hybridization, variation, color region adjustment, etc. Finally, the best color combination is obtained and combined with the image. Within the scope of color extraction value, designers can use interactive genetic algorithm rules to view color planning from a holistic perspective. Under the influence of human-computer interaction, each scheme is optimized step by step, so that the color ideas matching the designer can be found quickly.

EvoFolio: a portfolio optimization method based on multi-objective evolutionary algorithms

Optimal portfolio selection—composing a set of stocks/assets that provide high yields/returns with a reasonable risk—has attracted investors and researchers for a long time. As a consequence, a variety of methods and techniques have been developed, spanning from purely mathematics ones to computational intelligence ones. In this paper, we introduce a method for optimal portfolio selection based on multi-objective evolutionary algorithms, specifically Nondominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm-II (NSGA-II), which tries to maximize the yield and minimize the risk, simultaneously. The system, named EvoFolio, has been experimented on stock datasets in a three-years time-frame and varying the configurations/specifics of NSGA-II operators. EvoFolio is an interactive genetic algorithm, i.e., users can provide their own insights and suggestions to the algorithm such that it takes into account users’ preferences for some stocks. We have performed tests with optimizations occurring quarterly and monthly. The results show how EvoFolio can significantly reduce the risk of portfolios consisting only of stocks and obtain very high performance (in terms of return). Furthermore, considering the investor’s preferences has proved to be very effective in the portfolio’s composition and made it more attractive for end-users. We argue that EvoFolio can be effectively used by investors as a support tool for portfolio formation.

Acoustical and behavioral heuristics for fast interactive sound design.

During their creative process, designers routinely seek the feedback of end users. Yet, the collection of perceptual judgments is costly and time-consuming, since it involves repeated exposure to the designed object under elementary variations. Thus, considering the practical limits of working with human subjects, randomized protocols in interactive sound design face the risk of inefficiency, in the sense of collecting mostly uninformative judgments. This risk is all the more severe that the initial search space of design variations is vast. In this paper, we propose heuristics for reducing the design space considered during an interactive optimization process. These heuristics operate by using an approximation model, called surrogate model, of the perceptual quantity of interest. As an application, we investigate the design of pleasant and detectable electric vehicle sounds using an interactive genetic algorithm. We compare two types of surrogate models for this task, one based on acoustical descriptors gathered from the literature and the other based on behavioral data. We find that reducing by a factor of up to 64 an original design space of 4096 possible settings with the proposed heuristics reduces the number of iterations of the design process by up to 2 to reach the same performance. The behavioral approach leads to the best improvement of the explored designs overall, while the acoustical approach requires an appropriate choice of acoustical descriptor to be effective. Our approach accelerates the convergence of interactive design. As such, it is particularly suitable to tasks in which exhaustive search is prohibitively slow or expensive.
