Large scale structural optimization using genetic and generative algorithms with sequential linear programming
… that enables the use of evolutionary algorithms in large-scale structural design. Specifically, two novel parameterization concepts based on generative algorithms and Boolean random networks are proposed that facilitate systematic exploration of the design space while limiting the …

Generative design algorithms in topology optimization of passive heat spreaders
This thesis explores the use of generative algorithms in engineering design. A framework for using generative algorithms in design is presented and a case study for passive heat spreaders is devised to demonstrate the execution of this framework. Topology optimization methods are now the state of …

MULTIPLE STRATEGIES IN COMPUTATIONAL PROTEIN DESIGN: STRUCTURAL INTUITION, PROBABILISTIC INVERSE FOLDING, AND GENERATIVE APPROACHES
… modeling, statistical inference, and generative algorithms. This work presents conceptual, methodological, and applied examples spanning multiple stages of protein design, from early structure-guided approaches to inverse backbone design and modern generative models. As a …

Hierarchical music structure analysis, modeling and resynthesis : a dynamical systems and signal processing approach
The problem of creating generative music systems has been approached in different ways, each guided by different goals, aesthetics, beliefs and biases. These generative systems can be divided into two categories: the first is an ad hoc definition of the generative algorithms, the second is based on …

Emergence through conflict : the Multi-Disciplinary Design System (MDDS)
… artificial intelligence, design synthesis and generative algorithms, mathematical modeling and disciplinary analyses, optimization theory, data management and model integration, and experimental design among many others. There are five phases to generate the MDDS. These phases involve …

Generative Structural Design: An Algorithmic Approach to Synthesizing and Optimizing Steel Lateral Systems
… and an analytical contribution. A novel generative structural design method is proposed, taking low-fidelity inputs, such as those that might be considered during early-stage design, and outputting a high-fidelity structural model that can be analyzed and iterated. The algorithm is tested …

Design of genetic regulatory networks
… capitalizes on the representational power of generative algorithms. Inspired by preferential attachment and generative graph grammars, we present new generative models that can incorporate both growth processes and “if-then"" statement rules. These generative models are used as an abstract …
