Precise assessment of geometric building envelope characteristics is essential for parametric simulation analysis and informed retrofitting decisions. Previous methods for estimating building characteristics, such as window-to-wall ratio and building footp ...
Using unprocessed materials in construction is a promising approach to reducing energy and material consumption in the building industry. This paper presents a geometric planning algorithm for constructing multi-leaf masonry walls using natural stones. Our ...
This paper studies the problem of learning computable functions in the limit by extending Gold's inductive inference framework to incorporate computational observations and restricted input sources. Complimentary to the traditional Input-Output Observation ...
Sustainability should be integrated into everything we do, including engineering and student projects. This experiential activity uses the selection of materials for a wind turbine to engage participants in a contextualised negotiation of multiple facets o ...
This thesis focuses on the development of advanced algorithmic techniques, primarily Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods, and message passing algorithms, to tackle high-dimensional optimization and inference problems. The algorithms used have a probabi ...
