Abstract

In today’s society, where everyone desires unique and fashionable products, the ability to customise products is almost mandatory in every online store. Despite of many stores allowing the users to personalize their products, they do not always do it in the most efficient and user-friendly manner. In order to have products that reflect the user’s design preferences, they have to go through a laborious process of picking the components that they want to customise. In this paper we propose a framework that aims to relieve the design burden from the user side, by automating the design process through the use of Interactive Evolutionary Computation (IEC). The framework is based on a web-interface that facilitates the interaction between the user and the evolutionary process. The user can select between two types of evolution: (i) automatic; and (ii) partially-automatic. The results show the ability of the framework to promote evolution towards solutions that reflect the user aesthetic preferences.
