title	Using Virtual Models to Teach Traditional Chinese Wood Construction
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.1996.119
source	CAADRIA ‘96 [Proceedings of The First Conference on Computer Aided Architectural Design Research in Asia / ISBN 9627-75-703-9] Hong Kong (Hong Kong) 25-27 April 1996, pp. 119-130
summary	In this paper we discuss our experience in using virtual models to teach traditional Chinese wood construction. Although our approach is technically simple – we use a kit of model parts made with the Solid Modeler of AutoCAD, Release 12 (now Release 13), and customized commands in AutoLISP – we have had excellent results. This is because of the remarkable match between the modelling medium and the highly systematized nature of traditional Chinese wood construction. It is this crucial – and interesting – characteristic that we want students to understand and appreciate. In our first teaching experience, in the fall term, 1994-95, despite unexpected drawbacks, our approach succeeded. In fact, our students, all Hong Kong Chinese, were surprisingly enthusiastic and even took pride in the sophistication of this uniquely Chinese construction system. In 1995-96, we have used the same kit of parts in two courses: an introduction to Chinese architecture (spring term) and an advanced course in Song dynasty wood construction (fall term). We first discuss briefly the theoretical basis for our approach. We then describe the assignments, the kit of parts, and supporting materials used in our teaching experiences. Finally, we discuss our findings and consider directions for the future development and improvement of our approach.

title	The rule-based nature of wood frame construction of the Yingzaofashi and the role of virtual modelling in understanding it
source	Computing in architectural research, Proceedings of the International Conference on Chinese Architectural History, 25-40. Hong Kong, 7-10 August 1995
summary	The wood frame construction system of the Yingzao fashi is rule-based. In this system, the text can be understood as rules, construction as the execution of those rules, and the building as the output of the rules. To illustrate, we discuss a three-bay ting tang and some of the rules which govern its overall form and size. This three-bay ting tang is the smallest hall defined in the Yingzao fashi. Virtual models offer a critical advantage over real models and drawings. This type of representation allows us to ask questions which are particularly relevant to the rule-based system. We can execute the rules quickly and thus concentrate on the rules, their output, and the relation between them. We propose some areas of research made possible with virtual modelling. One is a study of curvature as a product of several rules, including shengqi, cejiao, and juzhe.

title	Thoughts on a Designer-friendly Shape Grammar Interpreter
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.2005.523
source	Digital Design: The Quest for New Paradigms [23nd eCAADe Conference Proceedings / ISBN 0-9541183-3-2] Lisbon (Portugal) 21-24 September 2005, pp. 523-528
summary	Discussions of shape grammar interpreters overlook a fundamental issue: the model of the designer’s work. Such a model would provide guidance for developing an interpreter with an appropriate interface. In this paper, I first propose a model in which the designer’s work is to create and test generative specifications of languages of designs. I call this model designercentered generative design. Then, I examine the characteristics of shape grammar and how they support or impede this model of work. Finally, I discuss the implications for the design of an appropriate shape grammar interpreter. These provide guidelines for implementing such an interpreter for testing.

title	Editing Shapes in a Prototype Two- and Three-dimensional Shape Grammar Environment
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.2009.243
source	Computation: The New Realm of Architectural Design [27th eCAADe Conference Proceedings / ISBN 978-0-9541183-8-9] Istanbul (Turkey) 16-19 September 2009, pp. 243-250
summary	Recently we developed a prototype general shape grammar system, called Grammar Environment (Li et al. 2009). It differs from other systems in that it aims to support designers who design with shape grammars. One task of such a system is to support users in editing shapes. The guidelines that we followed in developing Grammar Environment suggested that the shape editing system should both be integrated into the system and be powerful as a drawing tool. This seemed to be contradictory. We decided to make two shape editors: one stronger on integration, the other on drawing power.

title	A Prototype System for developing two- and Three-Dimensional Shape Grammars
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2009.717
source	Proceedings of the 14th International Conference on Computer Aided Architectural Design Research in Asia / Yunlin (Taiwan) 22-25 April 2009, pp. 717-726
summary	A number of researchers have developed shape grammar systems, with a variety of aims. These systems all help users (to varying degrees) to run grammars, but not to develop grammars. However, we believe that developing grammars is also work and needs to be supported. A system to do this would make it easier and more convenient for people using grammars to do design work. Following the generate-test model, we design and implement a prototype system that supports the user in editing grammars, testing grammars, and switching easily between the two types of activity. We emphasize the graphic nature of the task: the user is all the time working with graphic objects, namely shapes.

title	Optimal Organization of Architectural Spaces Based on Genetic Algorithm
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2009.653
source	Proceedings of the 14th International Conference on Computer Aided Architectural Design Research in Asia / Yunlin (Taiwan) 22-25 April 2009, pp. 653-661
summary	Genetic algorithms categorized as global search heuristics are search technique of seeking approximate or exact solutions for optimizing problems. Our generative tool named notchSpace starts from a population of randomly generated individuals which rationally subdivide architectural spaces with a low “fitness”. During generations’ evolution, the population is recombined, modified and mutated at a low rate to form new modes of building spatial subdivision; a new population is used in the next iteration. NotchSpace works up a research platform to evolve architectural spaces, and it explores the thinking of translation from computer algorithms to the field of architecture.

title	Virtual Simulation of New Residential Buildings in Lingnan Using Vernacular Wisdom
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.2020.1.269
source	Werner, L and Koering, D (eds.), Anthropologic: Architecture and Fabrication in the cognitive age - Proceedings of the 38th eCAADe Conference - Volume 1, TU Berlin, Berlin, Germany, 16-18 September 2020, pp. 269-278
summary	Every new idea has some sort of precedent or echoes from the past. It is the same for the new residential buildings in Lingnan, China. In Lingnan, the vernacular knowledge of building design has been established over thousands of years. Whether it is suitable for use today should be verified. In this research, virtual simulations are employed to arrive at an overall conclusion. Virtual simulations based on PHOENICS, ENVI_MET, CadnaA, and Ecotect software were separately used for analysing the case of new residential buildings located in Lingnan. The study analysed the wind, thermal, acoustic, and light environments, which are four aspects of these new residential buildings. According to the results of our research, the paper discussed ways to amend and improve the new residential buildings that sit within the overall spirit of the vernacular knowledge of Lingnan; thus, it helps to put the traditional knowledge into the current context. The vernacular knowledge from XS to XL scale contexts, such as Feng-shui, was verified as being suitable for use in Lingnan today.

summary	As the concerns for pedestrian safety in station design are growing, multi-agent simulation becomes more widely used nowadays. While the difference between inputs in regard to their impacts on simulation outputs needs further research, previous studies fail to provide a global analysis of it in complex environments with limited computation resources. Therefore, regression-based SRC and revised Morris Method are employed in a sensitivity analysis of train station platform simulations. Results show that preference for escalators and alighting rate are influential parameters to all three concerned outputs while the standard deviation of walking speed is negligible. Given that most simulation users have limited time and resources, this paper provides a list of parameters that deserve the time and effort to calibrate together with a factor fixing method that can be applied in similar scenarios. In this way, simulation users can lower the uncertainty of train station simulations more efficiently.

summary	The design of virtual places is metaphorical because it relies on references to the physical world. The use of a consistent metaphor provides a sense of place that combines functionality, familiarity, richness and an awareness of the presence of others. In this paper we consider such designs from a representational perspective. We discuss the characteristics and distinctions of a model of metaphorical design representation and propose a framework for the development of the representation of metaphorical design. We illustrate this framework with examples of designs of virtual places.

title	Genetic search for solving construction site-level unequal-area facility layout problems
source	Automation in Construction 9 (2) (2000) pp. 217-226
summary	A construction site represents a conflux of concerns, constantly calling for a broad and multi-criteria approach to solving problems related to site planning and design. As an important part of site planning and design, the objective of site-level facility layout is to allocate appropriate locations and areas for accommodating temporary site-level facilities such as warehouses, job offices, workshops and batch plants. Depending on the size, location and nature of the project, the required temporary facilities may vary. The layout of facilities can influence on the production time and cost in projects. In this paper, a construction site-level facility layout problem is described as allocating a set of predetermined facilities into a set of predetermined places, while satisfying layout constraints and requirements. A genetic algorithm system, which is a computational model of Darwinian evolution theory, is employed to solve the facilities layout problem. A case study is presented to demonstrate the efficiency of the genetic algorithm system in solving the construction site-level facility layout problems.

title	CocoBot: Developing a Consent Communication Tool Based on Co-Evolutionary Model
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2024.2.049
source	Nicole Gardner, Christiane M. Herr, Likai Wang, Hirano Toshiki, Sumbul Ahmad Khan (eds.), ACCELERATED DESIGN - Proceedings of the 29th CAADRIA Conference, Singapore, 20-26 April 2024, Volume 2, pp. 49–58
summary	In architecture and interior design, consent communication is crucial for the collaboration between clients and designers. With clients often needing assistance articulating particular design requirements, this study introduces CocoBot (Collaborative Consensus Bot), which integrates artificial intelligence-generated content (AIGC) technology into the communication of the design collaboration. This tool facilitates collaborative evolution between clients and designers by transforming requirements into tangible images, enhancing communication efficiency and consensus formation. The co-evolutionary model is at the core of CocoBot, which stimulates interaction and consensus formation between clients and interior designers by extracting semantic information from the communication process and generating images. It utilizes visualization to mitigate linguistic ambiguity and subjectivity, facilitating consensus attainment. Through qualitative research and expert interviews, we validate the effectiveness of CocoBot in improving communication between clients and designers, particularly in addressing language uncertainties and ambiguities, ushering in a new collaborative mode for designers and clients.

title	Integrating XR and Tangible Model to Enhance Old Building Renovation Design

summary	The renovation of old buildings usually has complex site constraints, involves multiple interests, and has limited capital costs. Therefore, the transformation process has always encouraged the participation of stakeholders to improve the effectiveness of the design. Tangible user interfaces (TUIs) consisting of physical models further simplify the operation. However, most designs are displayed by projection, which cannot provide a realistic interactive experience. Extended Reality (XR) technology has the advantages of interactivity and clear visualization. We developed a participatory renovation tool using XR technology and tangible models. We invited the owner to view the 3D design proposal in HoloLens and then use the tangible model to discuss the renovation design. This experiment proves that the system can realize on-site 3D visualization, allowing the public to design in a real environment and intuitively interact with the virtual and the real. Using the participatory design method of XR technology + tangible model will provide a convenient platform for the renovation of old buildings with the collaborative participation of stakeholders.

title	Revitalization of Digital Hometown of Overseas Chinese: Using Virtual Reality Interaction Technology - The Example of Jimei School Village
source	ACADIA 2023: Habits of the Anthropocene: Scarcity and Abundance in a Post-Material Economy [Volume 2: Proceedings of the 43rd Annual Conference for the Association for Computer Aided Design in Architecture (ACADIA) ISBN 979-8-9891764-0-3]. Denver. 26-28 October 2023. edited by A. Crawford, N. Diniz, R. Beckett, J. Vanucchi, M. Swackhamer 330-339.
summary	Promoting the transformation and development of overseas Chinese hometowns through the inheritance of overseas Chinese culture and the integration of culture and tourism is an important research perspective in China's rural revitalization strategy. Nowadays, the development of rural cultural tourism through various digital means has effectively promoted the economic vitality of the region. This research takes Jimei School Village as an example and uses virtual-real interactive technology [Mixed Reality (MR) and an open- source electronics platform based on easy-to-use hardware and software (Arduino)] to build a ""Phygital Game"" - a virtual-real interactive platform. First, this research uses MR technology to display the characteristic content of the hometown of overseas Chinese, expand the amount of information displayed, and immerse tourists in the realistic scene of virtual-real fusion. In terms of interactive form, through the design of physical inter- action of Arduino, visitors can participate in puzzle-solving games. This platform aims to encourage tourists to actively explore the architectural features and culture of the hometown of overseas Chinese, to provide a valuable perspective for the optimization and development of the immersive cultural tourism platform.

title	ChatDesign: Bootstrapping Generative Floor Plan Design With Pre-trained Large Language Models

summary	Large language models (LLMs) have achieved remarkable success in various domains, revolutionizing tasks such as language translation, text generation, and question-answering. However, generating floor plan designs poses a unique challenge that demands the fulfilment of intricate spatial and relational constraints. In this paper, we propose ChatDesign, an innovative approach that leverages the power of pre-trained LLMs to generate floor plan designs from natural language descriptions, while incorporating iterative modifications based on user interaction. By processing user input text through a pre-trained LLM and utilizing a decoder, we can generate regression parameters and floor plans that are precisely tailored to satisfy the specific needs of the user. Our approach incorporates an iterative refinement process, optimizing the model output by considering the input text and previous results. Throughout these interactions, we employ many strategic techniques to ensure the generated design images align precisely with the user's requirements. The proposed approach is extensively evaluated through rigorous experiments, including user studies, demonstrating its feasibility and efficacy. The empirical results consistently demonstrate the superiority of our method over existing approaches, showcasing its ability to generate floor plans that rival those created by human designer. Our code will be available at https://github.com/THU-Kingmin/ChatDesign.

title	Convolutional Neural Network-Based Predictions of Potential Flash Flood Hotspots in Singapore: Insights and Strategic Interventions
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2024.2.069
source	Nicole Gardner, Christiane M. Herr, Likai Wang, Hirano Toshiki, Sumbul Ahmad Khan (eds.), ACCELERATED DESIGN - Proceedings of the 29th CAADRIA Conference, Singapore, 20-26 April 2024, Volume 2, pp. 69–78
summary	Amid increasing urbanization, changing climate, and limited stormwater infrastructure, urban flooding is a global issue, and Singapore is no exception. Traditional identification of flood-prone areas in Singapore has relied on historical flash flood data. However, by applying the booming influx of big data across various domains, including geography, weather, and DEM data, and using the deep learning model, Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), this research proposes a method that can accurately and effectively predict flash flood spots in an urban environment. Specifically, datasets including elevation, slope, aspect, rainfall, canals, drainage, and land use are fed into the CNN model to predict the locations of flash floods. The model, with a testing accuracy of 0.962, generates a comprehensive flash flood assessment map identifying high-risk areas in Singapore. Contrary to the current flood-prone area identification, which classifies only 0.79% of the country as susceptible to flash floods based on historical events, our CNN model-based assessment indicates that 11.4% of the country is at high risk. These newly identified zones are predominantly located along the coastline and in low-lying watershed outlets. Additionally, we propose corresponding stormwater infrastructure enhancements to mitigate flash flooding in these locations.
