A shape grammar for the building-type definition of the ancient Greek and Roman library and the evaluation of library plans

Artificial intelligence for engineering design, analysis and manufacturing, 2020
This paper presents in detail a parametric shape grammar for the generation of ancient Greek and Roman library plans. Ancient Libraries showcase a significant variability of scale, monumentality, and design with the use of different architectural ...

Efficiency in shaping grammars

Pragmatics and Society, 2021
AbstractHawkins (1994,1999,2004,2014a) proposes a performance-grammar correspondence hypothesis, claiming that grammars can be shaped by processing systems with reference to the degree of preference in communication. Given that Hawkins’s proposal mainly highlights the role of efficiency in language comprehension, this paper demonstrates that parsing ...

Fuzzy shape grammars

Progress in Artificial Intelligence, 2015
This paper shows some fuzzy generalizations of the concepts of derivation and computation with shape grammars. Fuzzy definitions are provided for both rule application and shape matching. The paper also describes a software prototype developed to test these ideas.

Supporting Creativity : with Emergent Shapes in Shape Grammars

2023 18th Iberian Conference on Information Systems and Technologies (CISTI), 2023
This paper describes a computational infrastructure used to support creative design in detecting emergent shapes in the specific context of shape grammar implementation. Shape grammars have been used to represent the knowledge behind the creative work of architects, designers and artists.

Enabling the Use of Shape Grammars: Shape Grammar Interpretation Through General Shape Recognition

Volume 4: 12th International Conference on Design Theory and Methodology, 2000
Abstract Shape grammars have recently shown promise in engineering applications. The need to efficiently implement such grammars, rather than hard code them, in a way that supports creativity through shape emergence has still remained an ongoing research challenge.
