  • Patent number: 11853653
    Abstract: This document describes a generative design platform that uses style to generate product designs. In one aspect, a method includes receiving, from a client computing device of a user, data identifying a set of design parameters including a product template for a product and one or more style grammars for the product. Each style grammar includes a set of stylistic parameters that define aesthetic characteristics of a group of related products. One or more physical constraints on a design of the product are obtained. A set of candidate product designs for the product are generated based on the product template, each style grammar, and the one or more physical constraints. A set of scores are generated for each candidate product design based on an evaluation of the candidate product designs. A subset of the candidate product designs are selected based on the scores.

  • Patent number: 11315201
    Abstract: A method and system for intelligently generating Bill of Materials (BoM) and tracking components of a build site. The method and system include querying a knowledge graph for a collection of historical bill of materials (BoMs), automatically generating a digital twin of a built site based on a selected group of completed build site, and intelligently generating the BoM for the digital twin based on BoMs of the selected group of completed built site.

  • Publication number: 20210286921
    Abstract: This document describes a generative design platform that generates and uses style grammars to generate product designs. In one aspect, a method includes, for each of multiple products, obtaining one or more visual representations of the product and extracting, from the one or more visual representations of the product, feature values for visual features of the product. For each visual feature of a set of visual features, one or more clusters are generated. Each cluster includes a set of feature values for one or more of the products classified as being similar feature values. For a group of related products, a style grammar is generated based on the set of feature values assigned to each cluster. The style grammar for the group of related products includes a set of stylistic parameters that specify respective ranges of feature values for visual features that represent aesthetic characteristics of the group of products.
