Evolving Families of Shapes
نویسندگان
چکیده
Visual families are seen as sets of artifacts that share common visual features allowing one to intuitively classify them as belonging to the same family. An evolutionary approach for the creation of such families of shapes, where each genotype encodes a visual language by means of a nondeterministic grammar is explored.

Reinventing the Gears: An Experiment in Evolution of Shapes for Function
There are two possible approaches to the evolution of mechanical components: evolving them as parts of handcrafted immutable mechanical systems, or by evolving the mechanical systems together with the components. We have developed and experimented with two representations that are suitable for the evolution of a pair of gears, one of which describes only the shapes, and one of which describes b...
متن کاملOPTIMAL NOZZLE SHAPES OF CO2-N2-H2O GASDYNAMIC LASERS
In an axisymmetric CO2-N2-H2O gas dynamic laser, let ? denote the intersection of the vertical plane of symmetry with the upper part of the (supersonic) nozzle. To obtain a maximal small signal gain, some authors have tested several families of curves for ?. To find the most general solution for ?, an application of Pontryagin’s principle led to the conjuncture that the optimal ? must consist o...
متن کاملThe Evolving Role of Physicians - Don’t Forget the Generalist Primary Care Providers; Comment on “Non-physician Clinicians in Sub-Saharan Africa and the Evolving Role of Physicians”
The editorial “Non-physician Clinicians in Sub-Saharan Africa and the Evolving Role of Physicians” by Eyal et al describes non-physician clinicians’ (NPC) need for mentorship and support from physicians. We emphasise the same need of support for front line generalist primary healthcare providers who carry out complex tasks yet may have an inadequate skill mix.
متن کاملThe Study of Triangulation Forms and Their Relationship with Parenting Styles among Families in Yazd
Introduction: The family provides the first seed of human development and personality development. The child learns ethical principles and social relationships with others in the family. So it is important to know what relationships are in the parents’ family and how they raise their children. The main purpose of this study was to investigate triangulation forms and their relationship with pare...
متن کاملThe Orbital Evolution Induced by Baryonic Condensation in Triaxial Halos
Using spectral methods, we analyse the orbital structure of dark matter (DM) in N -body simulations in an effort to understand the physical processes that drive the evolution of dark matter halo shapes caused by growing central masses. A longstanding issue is whether the change in the shapes of DM halos is the result of chaotic scattering of the major family of box orbits that serves as the bac...
