Design Manifolds Capture the Intrinsic Complexity and Dimension of Design Spaces

Experiment code associated with our JMD paper: "Design Manifolds Capture the Intrinsic Complexity and Dimension of Design Spaces"

Edit experiment configurations in config.ini

To perform the embedding and synthesize new shapes:

python training.py

To synthesize new shapes using trained models:

python synthesis.py

The settings of the kernel PCA and autoencoders are in the configuration files:

./hp-opt/hp_<example name>_<noise scale>.ini

We use pySMAC for hyperparameter optimization of kernel PCA and autoencoders.
