    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including medium-encoded computer program products, for converting a representation of a 2D curve into a set of simple sketch contours. A 2D curve and predefined geometries are obtained and are converted into a primitive sketch geometry by approximating free regions as segmented from the 2D curve to a set of 2D primitives so as to minimize a number of 2D primitives used in the primitive sketch geometry. The conversion of the 2D curve includes: processing candidate segments determined based on segmenting the free regions according to identified points on the 2D curve that meet a threshold for curve contact with a geometry of the predefined geometries to determine a set of segments for the free regions, and fitting the set of segments to the set of 2D primitives. The primitive sketch geometry is provided for rendering, editing, and/or simulating at a computer-aided design program.

    Abstract: A design engine is configured to automatically generate and position design elements within designs for a multi-family housing project that corresponds to a parcel of land. Each design simultaneously meets local construction regulations while also meeting specific financial targets. The design engine generates a site model that reflects geometric attributes of the parcel of land, a building model that describes one or more buildings configured to occupy the parcel of land, and a parking lot model that describes a parking lot configured to occupy a remaining portion of the parcel of land. A design simulator executes various types of physical simulations with the site model, the building model, and/or the parking lot model to generate a vast number of different design options having widely varying configurations of design elements. The design engine evaluates these design options to identify those which balance compliance with construction regulations and achievement of financial targets.

    Abstract: In various embodiments, a generative design application can leverage multi-disciplinary optimization to solve a design problem associated with a 3D model and interdependent design variables. The generative design application includes an optimization engine that can solve the design problem, or portions thereof, by iteratively performing optimization techniques on the interdependent design variables to generate an 3D model that maximizes or minimizes one or more objectives and meets one or more constraints, while simultaneously considering the effect of each interdependency of the design variables. Furthermore, the generative design application can leverage a natural language interface to augment the creation of the design problem for optimization. The generative design application can also leverage free-form deformation during generative design to parameterize a portion of the 3D model as part of the design problem.

    Abstract: In various embodiments, a room-based design application automatically generates a design for a floor structure of a building. In operation, the room-based design application generates blocks representing portions of the floor structure that are delineated by walls based on a room plan included in a computer-aided design of the building. The room-based design application modifies the blocks based on a spanning length to generate partitions. Each partition represents a different portion of the floor structure that can be spanned by a structural element that has the spanning length in at least one direction. Based on the partitions, the room-based design application determines wall classifications for the walls. The room-based design application generates at least a portion of the design for the floor structure based on the wall classifications and the partitions.

    Abstract: A method and system provide the ability to design a terrain surface. A triangular surface mesh representative of an existing surface is obtained and consists of triangles that are connected by vertices and edges. A drain intention is specified for the terrain surface through a geometry that is a point or line. The drain intention defines a drainage flow that influences a shape of the terrain surface. The mesh is modified to prevent a drain conflict between mesh triangles. A drain direction is autonomously determined for each of the mesh triangles based on the drain intention. The determination generates a drain pattern that is used to shape the terrain surface.

    Abstract: One embodiment of the present invention sets forth a technique for performing style transfer. The technique includes determining a distribution associated with a plurality of style codes for a plurality of three-dimensional (3D) shapes, where each style code included in the plurality of style codes represents a difference between a first 3D shape and a second 3D shape, and where the second 3D shape is generated by applying one or more augmentations to the first 3D shape. The technique also includes sampling from the distribution to generate an additional style code and executing a trained machine learning model based on the additional style code to generate an output 3D shape having style-based attributes associated with the additional style code and content-based attributes associated with an object. The technique further includes generating a 3D model of the object based on the output 3D shape.
