- Abstract
- Most generative design applications used in architectural design are developed with rule-based approaches, based on rules collected from expert knowledge and experience. In other domains, machine learning and, more in particular, neural networks have proven their usefulness and added value in replacing these hard-coded rules or improving applications when combining these two strategies. Since the space allocation problem still remains an open research question and common generative design techniques showed their limitations trying to solve this problem, new techniques need to be explored. In this paper, the application of neural networks to solve the space allocation problem for residential floor plans is tested. This research aims to expose the advantages as well as the difficulties of using neural networks by reviewing existing neural network architectures from different domains and by applying and testing them in this new context using a dataset of residential floor plans.
