title	The Introspection of Deep Neural Networks - Towards Illuminating the Black Box - Training Architects Machine Learning via Grasshopper Definitions
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2018.2.237

summary	Machine learning is yet to make a significant impact in the field of architecture and design. However, with the combination of artificial neural networks, a biologically inspired machine learning paradigm, and deep learning, a hierarchical subsystem of machine learning, the predictive capabilities of machine learning processes could prove a valuable tool for designers. Yet, the inherent knowledge gap between the fields of architecture and computer science has meant the complexity of machine learning, and thus its potential value and applications in the design of the built environment remain little understood. To bridge this knowledge gap, this paper describes the development of a learning tool directed at architects and designers to better understand the inner workings of machine learning. Within the parametric modelling environment of Grasshopper, this research develops a framework to express the mathematic and programmatic operations of neural networks in a visual scripting language. This offers a way to segment and parametrise each neural network operation into a basic expression. Unpacking the complexities of machine learning in an intermediary software environment such as Grasshopper intends to foster the broader adoption of artificial intelligence in architecture.

title	Designing with Biomaterials for Responsive Architecture - A soft responsive "bio-structural" hydrogel skin
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.2018.2.285

summary	Synthetic biomaterials are not only widely explored in tissue engineering, but also present important opportunities in responsive architecture, especially soft structures and skins. In this paper we present how water-containing hydrogels can be adapted to digital fabrication techniques to design a soft responsive skin with integrated skeleton and surface. This research project details preliminary investigation into how tough hydrogels with different material properties can be designed and incorporated into laser-cutting and 3D printing methods typically used in architectural design. The outcome of this research produces an early prototype of thermally sensitive, tough hydrogel skin that responds to environmental stimuli such as temperature and moisture. Our work provides initial insights into how a soft responsive "bio-structural" architectural skin can be designed by integrating actuation, structure, and skins.

title	Prototyping a Human-Building Interface with Multiple Mobile Robots
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2018.1.525

summary	Recent advances in miniature mobile robotic research have generated possibilities and potentials in a range of fields such as the military, rescue operations, logistics and education. Within architecture, especially in responsive architecture and architectural interface disciplines, there has been minimal uptake of this technology, and so its full potential and implications have not been fully explored. In this paper, we propose a design exploration of a human-building interface (HBI) with multiple mobile robots serving as 'physical pixels', which investigates the latent possibilities of public interactive displays and media screens, potentially provoking interaction with existing built environments. The outcomes of this paper include an early-stage design study of an HBI prototype, PixelFace, which has been developed with multiple spherical mobile robots and an existing building structure. An early physical implementation of the HBI as an interactive public display with real-time physical movement that encourages playful interaction is also included.

summary	This research in progress investigates a design and fabrication method of an adaptable and programmable composite material in an embodied computation system. It develops a workflow for a behavior-based model, the exploration of the morpho-space associated with the combinatorial assembly and the actuation of soft elements. The aggregation of individually actuatable and soft units in a system creates a large potential regarding adaptability, flexibility and reconfigurability, through a non-rigid and non-mechanical system. The cells are developed through a process of prototyping on origami and auxetic pattern inspired soft robotic elements. Every soft cell is pneumatically actuated through a negative pressure environment. The computational simulation is informed by the prototyping process and its findings. The simulation-based design of such an assembled system allows prediction of the aggregated shape and outputs a sequencing table, describing the actuation status of every cell and can create a tool to communicate between material and computational system

title	Approach to the Extraction of Design Features of Interior Design Elements Using Image Recognition Technique
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2018.2.287
source	T. Fukuda, W. Huang, P. Janssen, K. Crolla, S. Alhadidi (eds.), Learning, Adapting and Prototyping - Proceedings of the 23rd CAADRIA Conference - Volume 2, Tsinghua University, Beijing, China, 17-19 May 2018, pp. 287-296
summary	This paper aims to propose deep learning-based approach to the auto-recognition of their design features of interior design elements using given digital images. The recently image recognition technique using convolutional neural networks has shown great success in the various field of research and industry. The open-source frameworks and pre-trained image recognition models supporting image recognition task enable us to easily retrain the models to apply them on any domain. This paper describes how to apply such techniques on interior design process and depicts some demonstration results in that approaches. Furniture that is one of the most common interior design elements has sub-feature including implicit design features, such as style, shape, function as well as explicit properties, such as component, materials, and size. This paper shows to retrain the model to extract some of the features for efficiently managing and utilizing such design information. The target element is chair and the target design features are limited to functional features, materials, seating capacity and design style. Total 3933 chair images dataset and 6 retrained image recognition models were utilized for retraining. Through the combination of those multiple models, inference demonstration also has been described.

title	Mapping Urban Information as an Interdisciplinary Method for Geography, Art and Architecture Representations
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.2018.2.215
source	Kepczynska-Walczak, A, Bialkowski, S (eds.), Computing for a better tomorrow - Proceedings of the 36th eCAADe Conference - Volume 2, Lodz University of Technology, Lodz, Poland, 19-21 September 2018, pp. 215-224
summary	In the current context, access to daily realities is becoming increasingly mediated and processed by maps, flooding us with spatial data that appears to be objective but needs to be questioned, or even disputed. On the other hand, there are some relevant aspects of the urban experience that elude the main maps provided by apps or big data visualizing projects. So this article points out alternative ways of mapping urban information in this context, by means of presenting and discussing the methodology and results of a mapping workshop carried out at a German university in 2017 with interdisciplinary groups of students. The aim was to provide new insights and readings of the contemporary city. We explored and invented the urban with a mix of creative research methods.

title	Printing Whisper Dishes. Large-scale binder jetting for outdoor installations
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.acadia.2018.328
source	ACADIA // 2018: Recalibration. On imprecisionand infidelity. [Proceedings of the 38th Annual Conference of the Association for Computer Aided Design in Architecture (ACADIA) ISBN 978-0-692-17729-7] Mexico City, Mexico 18-20 October, 2018, pp. 328-335
summary	This research explores the design opportunities of a novel fabrication process for large scale architectural installations suitable for outdoor weather conditions. High resolution, bespoke geometries are easily fabricated at no extra cost in a continuous system using Binder Jet printing technology. The material properties of sandstone are considered a design drive for producing structural paths according to a finite element analysis. Several post processing materials are tested for strengthening the final geometry and providing a water resistant solution. The process is tested in a large, 1:1 sound installation of a pair of acoustic mirrors. First, this paper describes the specific potential and challenges of Binder Jet printing for outdoor applications. It, then, outlines the design principles of the sound device, the acoustic mirror, and their integration into a digital model. Finally, the computational design strategy is described, including topology optimization to reduce the weight/material and the integration of functional details

summary	This research explores the combination of two different types of algorithms that have so far been treated separately in architectural computational design: recursive subdivision, and differential or cellular growth. The two algorithms appear to act in opposite directions, the first is a refinement going inwards while the latter is growing outwards. However, both algorithms are based on the refinement of mesh geometries by inserting new vertices and faces and can be used in combination. The resulting subdivisional growth can be used to enhance specific geometric traits of either recursive subdivision or cellular growth at different scales or in different sections of the design object. The resulting geometries have been explored through case studies that utilize those possibilities.

summary	This paper, presents an ongoing work entitled ICARUS, an abbreviation for 'Integrating Computerized ARchitecture with USers'. The aim of this work is to develop an open source platform for computer programming implemented in architecture, for teaching and research. In particular, the platform provides the framework for a simplified and user friendly textual programming methodology for the needs of our architectural institution. It consists of several modules like coding, plug-in and repository development, targeting to be publicly available in the future. The platform is created based on the Python programming language, which is run in Grasshopper, a plug-in for Rhino 3D. In the first phase of ICARUS development, several case studies within the framework of a postgraduate course are conducted, aiming at providing an overview of its potentials, limitations and generally, its impact on establishing a useful methodology for algorithmic thinking among students with little or no prior computer programming skills.

title	An integrated robotically-driven workflow for the development of elastic tensile structures in various scales
source	Odysseas Kontovourkis (ed.), Sustainable Computational Workflows [6th eCAADe Regional International Workshop Proceedings / ISBN 9789491207143], Department of Architecture, University of Cyprus, Nicosia, Cyprus, 24-25 May 2018, pp. 111-120
keywords	This paper presents an ongoing work towards the development of an integrated robotically-driven workflow that can be used for the design, development and subsequent fabrication of small-to large-scale elastic tensile mesh structures. This approach involves digital form-finding and optimization, driven by robotic manufacturing principles and it aims to overcome the limitations of currently available tools, to work either in the design or the fabrication phase of the process. At the same time, it involves the fabrication of systems in several scales followed by respective analyses of results according to the specific type and diameter of the material used. Specifically, form-finding and optimization are responsible for controlling the pretension of the elastic threads, aiming to determine the final tensile mesh and to generate the additive robotic tool-path. In parallel, the type and diameter of the material involved, define the necessary changes of the end-effector tool, which is responsible to implement the process. Despite that design results can be in any scale, for study purposes an experimentation into a small-scale is conducted, to evaluate the suggested automated construction process in general and the end-effector mechanism in particular.

summary	The paper investigates the design loop of parametrically creating an architectural shape based on the analysis of the specific wind situation of the design site, continuously testing the design's performance in the wind using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations and subsequently adjusting the formed architectural shape based on the wind simulations' results. An optimal shape for the determined behavior in the wind is sought in this iterative process. The design strategy is being developed as an attempt to create a sustainable and effective alternative design approach for the changing future environment. The complexity of the process, particularly the need of the repetitive wind tunnel adjustment for every new design situation, or the need of external post-processing software for displaying the wind results of every new architectural shape remains a disadvantage in the search for an optimal architectural solution.

title	The Geometrical Structure of new Architectural Object - The role of meta-mechanics of Holography in its formation
source	Odysseas Kontovourkis (ed.), Sustainable Computational Workflows [6th eCAADe Regional International Workshop Proceedings / ISBN 9789491207143], Department of Architecture, University of Cyprus, Nicosia, Cyprus, 24-25 May 2018, pp. 29-38
keywords	In recent years there has been a gradually increasing interest in the terms on which the design and geometrical representation of the architectural object is based. ?he true challenge lies in the development of a methodology or mechanism which, having as its starting point the traditional object geometrical representation practices, will allow for a combination of new technologies towards creating new visual messages. In this research, the process of putting together a new architectural object, the digital hologram, will be seen as one such mechanism. The new views and strategies on space are open to treating spatial constructions, as a restructuring of the structures that could bring about changes for more favorable conditions for the representation of the architectural form. Thus, the strategies of architectural pioneering are judged by their ability to develop new procedures that are capable of reversing.

title	Shattering the black box: Technicities of architectural manipulation
source	International Journal of Architectural Computing vol. 16 - no. 4, 295-305
summary	This article attempts to reverse a fallacy often met in architectural theories and practices: that of a supposed input which through processes of what one can broadly call translations generates a built output. The input–output fallacy produces an architectural black box that treats both architectural thinking and doing as a mere process of projecting, representing and annotating ‘properly’ what will later be executed. On the contrary, a manipulative account of architecture as an active process of ecological engineering will pave the way for not only reversing the fallacy but also towards a particular understanding of architectural practices: architectural technicities and their reticular, affective potentials. Drawing on the theories of Gilbert Simondon, André Leroi-Gourhan, Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari, I will examine how architecture can be genealogically approached as a reticular technicity which evolves by a reciprocal concretisation of its technical objects and a generalisation of its active practitioners: no longer the application of transcendental design rules, of symbolic deductions or statistical inductions but rather abductive heuristics of affective techniques; no input nor output but practices of sensorial amplification via material manipulation and vice versa.

summary	This paper discusses the Building Information Dashboard, a data representation method which provides a solid basis for decision-makers to make optimal decisions during the design phase of an Architecture, Engineering, and Construction project. We describe an example project workflow where the dashboard is integrated. We sum up the evaluation method, which is the basis of the dashboard, and we research what type of visualization method is best suited to representing this type of data. To this end, an evaluation matrix was created to compare the alternative charts. We take into account what kind of information such a dashboard should represent and what kind of features it should have. We suggest layouts for different use cases - both for professional and non-professional decision-makers, as well as for discipline designers.

summary	This paper presents the experience of implementating GIS technologies at a county town urban planning department. The necessity to implement GIS technology is partly dictated by the requirements of the INSPIRE Directive. The discussed case provides valuable information about the problems and challenges that cities have in Poland, while performing their obligations under the directive. The process of preparing the necessary geographical database corresponding to existing planning documents raises many legal and technical problems. The presented case illustrates the whole process associated with the preparation of digitization and publication of urban plans. At the same time, it is worth to see the numerous benefits that the city obtains after publishing GIS data. Attention should also be paid to the further development of GIS and the chances of their use, especially in urban centers.
