Abstract

This paper presents a method for the automatic generation of a spatial architectural layout from a user-specified architectural program. The proposed approach binds a multi-agent topology finding system and an evolutionary optimization process. The former generates topology satisfied layouts for further optimization, while the latter focuses on refining the layouts to achieve predefined architectural criteria.The topology finding process narrows the search space and increases the performance in subsequent optimization. Results imply that the spatial layout modeling and themulti-floor topology are handled.
