Abstract

We propose a new approach to easily 3D geometric models. A technique called interactive evolutionary computation (IEC) is introduced to efficiently support a process of user's new shape creation in an early design stage. The proposed IEC-based design system generates aesthetically pleasing shapes through the simulation of evolutionary processes. The users only need to subjectively specify the degree of "likes or dislikes"for shapes generated by the system, and the system creates more preferred models for them. The system allows even beginners with little knowledge and experiences of the 3D modeling to acquire innovative shapes. It also provides skilled experts with an advanced geometric modeling interface based on the implicit surface method. The experts can directly modify the internal parameters of the 3D models to make them more elaborate ones. The result of a preliminary experiment is presented to show the potential of the proposed modeling method.
