Abstract
This paper deals with evaluation of architecture designed by multiple users. Presented approach concentrates on comparison of two languages – a language of an assessed building and a language of its context. The proposed method requires a CAD-like system to be equipped with an agent capable of some cognition and creative thinking that will allow to assess the project on the basis of its structure and given surroundings. Therefore, the system must contain a knowledge base about the context language and be able to extend it on the basis of designer’s actions. The internal structure of the design requires conceptualization, which is performed on the basis of a visual perception model. Also, some sense of aesthetics should be present. Methods of graph representation of a design, defining the context language by automatic preparation of its graph grammar, and evaluating aesthetic fitness are presented.
