Graph Embedding for Retrieval

Chi Thang Duong

Information retrieval (IR) systems such as search engines are important for people to find what they need among the tremendous amount of data available in their organization or on the Internet. These IR systems enable users to search in a large data collec ...

SPECTRE: Spectral Conditioning Helps to Overcome the Expressivity Limits of One-shot Graph Generators

Andreas Loukas, Nathanaël Perraudin

We approach the graph generation problem from a spectral perspective by first generating the dominant parts of the graph Laplacian spectrum and then building a graph matching these eigenvalues and eigenvectors. Spectral conditioning allows for direct model ...

Exploration of static equilibrium representations; policies and genetic algorithms

Corentin Jean Dominique Fivet, Ioannis Mirtsopoulos

Design exploration consists in browsing the design space and through the incremental generation of diverse design candidates increases creativity and diversity. When integrated into the early stages of the structural design process, the task is expected to ...

A Unified Experiment Design Approach for Cyclic and Acyclic Causal Models

Negar Kiyavash, Ehsan Mokhtarian, Saber Salehkaleybar

We study experiment design for unique identification of the causal graph of a system where the graph may contain cycles. The presence of cycles in the structure introduces major challenges for experiment design as, unlike acyclic graphs, learning the skele ...

Policy-based Exploration of Equilibrium Representations (PEER): A topology grammar for generative conceptual structural design

Ioannis Mirtsopoulos

Design exploration is a creative process that consists of the incremental generation of design candidates. Supported by digital means or not, the process handles the ill-structured nature of design and allows creativity to flourish through diversity of des ...

Robotically-Fabricated Nexorades from Whole Timber

Yves Weinand, Aryan Rezaei Rad, Petras Vestartas

This paper introduces the conceptual design of sustainable timber structures using raw wood. It pre-sents a workflow for systematically generating Nexorades using a tiling method for multi-valence quad subdivided surfaces. The system is designed based on a ...

Propagation on Multi-relational Graphs for Node Regression

Eda Bayram

Recent years have witnessed a rise in real-world data captured with rich structural information that can be conveniently depicted by multi-relational graphs. While inference of continuous node features across a simple graph is rather under-studied by the c ...

Inverse Analysis of R-UHPFRC Beams to Determine the Flexural Response under Service Loading and at Ultimate Resistance

Eugen Brühwiler, Emmanuel Denarié, Bartlomiej Wojciech Sawicki

Ultra high performance fiber reinforced cementitious composites (UHPFRCs) have demonstrated their outstanding efficiency as structural materials. Determination of the bending resistance of members combining UHPFRC with steel reinforcement bars (R-UHPFRC) u ...

Space-Efficient Representations of Graphs

Jakab Tardos

With the increasing prevalence of massive datasets, it becomes important to design algorithmic techniques for dealing with scenarios where the input to be processed does not fit in the memory of a single machine. Many highly successful approaches have emer ...

Component reuse in structural design: emerging practices and tools for the circular economy

Corentin Jean Dominique Fivet, Jan Friedrich Georg Brütting, Jonas Warmuth

Structural engineers play an increasing role in ensuring the transition towards a more sustainable construction sector: a) they are responsible for the design of the most resource- and energy-intensive part of buildings and infrastructure, and b) they regu ...

Scalable Robust Graph Embedding with Spark

Karl Aberer, Quoc Viet Hung Nguyen, Chi Thang Duong

Graph embedding aims at learning a vector-based representation of vertices that incorporates the structure of the graph. This representation then enables inference of graph properties. Existing graph embedding techniques, however, do not scale well to larg ...

Computational Analysis and Design of Structurally Stable Assemblies with Rigid Parts

Ziqi Wang

An assembly refers to a collection of parts joined together to achieve a specific form and/or functionality. Assemblies make it possible to fabricate large and complex objects with several small and simple parts. Such parts can be assembled and disassemble ...
