Abstract: A material search system, includes a material search server, including a processor, a non-transitory memory, an input/output, a material library for storing material representations, a material search manager, a machine learner, an image translation model, and a semantic model; and a material search device. Each material representation includes a visual image, a color palette, a structural image, and a semantic structure. Also disclosed is a method of searching a material library and generating output material representations; including performing reverse image, reverse structure, and semantic searches; training image and structural translation models; and training a semantic model.
Abstract: A product configuration design system, includes a product configuration design server, including a processor, a non-transitory memory, an input/output, a product storage, a configuration library, and a machine learner; and a product configuration design device, which enables a user to select a three-dimensional object representation, a collection, and an inspiration source, such that the product configuration design server generates a plurality of product configurations as an output from a machine learning calculation on a configuration generation model, which takes as input the three-dimensional object representation, the collection, and the inspiration source. Also disclosed is a method of selecting a three-dimensional object representation, a collection, and an inspirations source; and generating product configurations.
Abstract: A product simulation and control system includes: a server, including a product storage; and a device, including a processor, non-transitory memory, input/output, product browser, product simulator that simulates physical movement of products, and a product classifier that uses machine learning to optimize a product classification function. Also disclosed is a method for product simulation and control, including browsing, favoriting, tagging, selecting, page browsing, pinching, stretching, and simulating movement of products.
