支持创新设计的多Agent系统

A Multi-Agent System Supporting Innovation Design

提出了一种支持创新设计的多Agent系统,该系统为设计人员提供有效的辅助工具。多Agent为设计人员的相互协作提供了支撑框架,基于树结构的遗传算法拓宽了设计人员的思维空间。以花瓶设计为例描述了系统的辅助设计过程。该实例利用VC自带的图形函数库OpenGL生成形状草图,用基于特征的产品设计树产生可选的部件组合,用遗传算法实现创新设计。

This paper introduces a multiagent system supporting innovation design. This system provides an effective auxiliary tool for designers. A multiagent system architecture offers a supporting framework for cooperative work in this environment while generic algorithm based on tree structure provides a tool for extending the thinking space of designers. The process of innovative design is illustrated by an artwork (vase) design example, which uses OpenGL to form sketch shapes and a feature based product tree to generate component combination choices and generic algorithm based on binary mathematical expression tree to achieve innovative design.
