MetaGen: A DSL, Database, and Benchmark for VLM-Assisted Metamaterial Generation
Liane Makatura, Benjamin Jones, Siyuan Bian +1
Metamaterials are micro-architected structures whose geometry imparts highly tunable-often counter-intuitive-bulk properties. Yet their design is difficult because of geometric com…
How Can Large Language Models Help Humans in Design and Manufacturing?
Liane Makatura, Michael Foshey, Bohan Wang +15
The advancement of Large Language Models (LLMs), including GPT-4, provides exciting new opportunities for generative design. We investigate the application of this tool across the…
Polygrammar: Grammar for Digital Polymer Representation and Generation
Minghao Guo, Wan Shou, Liane Makatura +3
Polymers are widely-studied materials with diverse properties and applications determined by different molecular structures. It is essential to represent these structures clearly a…
Knitting Skeletons: A Computer-Aided Design Tool for Shaping and Patterning of Knitted Garments
Alexandre Kaspar, Liane Makatura, Wojciech Matusik
This work presents a novel interactive system for simple garment composition and surface patterning. Our approach makes it easier for casual users to customize machine-knitted garm…
Neural Inverse Knitting: From Images to Manufacturing Instructions
Alexandre Kaspar, Tae-Hyun Oh, Liane Makatura +3
Motivated by the recent potential of mass customization brought by whole-garment knitting machines, we introduce the new problem of automatic machine instruction generation using a…
