Logic Based Design Modeling with Shape Algebras

September 1, 1997
Author(s)
Scott Chase
A new method of describing designs by combining the paradigms of shape aglebras and predicate logic representations is presented. Representing shapes and spatial relations in logic provides a natural, intuitive mehtod of developing complete computer

Emergence, Creativity, and Computational Tractability in Shape Grammers

March 1, 1997
Author(s)
Scott Chase
Emergence supports creativity in that emergent features can be considered unanticipated or accidental. The body of shape grammar research over the past quarter century has demonstratated that, within a strictly circumscribed space of designs, it is

Design Modeling With Shape Algebras and Formal Logic

September 1, 1996
Author(s)
Scott Chase
A new method of describing designs by combining the paradigms of shape algebras and predicate logic representations is presented. Representing shapes and spatial relations in logic provides a natural, intuitive method of developing complete computer

Representing Designs With Logic Formulations of Spatial Relations

July 1, 1996
Author(s)
Scott Chase
A new method of describing designs by combining the paradigms of shape algebras and predicate logic representations is proposed. Representing shapes and spatial relations in first order predicated logic provides a natural, intuitive method of developing

Modeling Spatial Reasoning Systems With Shape Algebras and Formal Logic

June 1, 1996
Author(s)
Scott Chase
The combination of the paradigms of shape algebras and predicate logic representations,used in a new method for describing designs, is presented. First order predicate logicprovides a natural, intuitive way of representing shapes and spatial relations

Using Logic to Specify Shapes and Spatial Relations in Design Grammars

March 1, 1996
Author(s)
Scott Chase
Shape algebraic representations provide several advantages over more traditional geometric representations. The use of predicate logic formulations of shape and spatial relations provides a natural, intuitive way to extend shape representations of the
