    Abstract: A design application is configured to generate a latent space representation of a fleet of pre-existing vehicles. The design application encodes vehicle designs associated with the fleet of pre-existing vehicles into the latent space representation to generate a first latent space location. The first latent space location represents the characteristic style associated with the fleet of pre-existing vehicles. The design application encodes a sample design provided by a user into the latent space representation to produce a second latent space location. The design application then determines a distance between the first latent space location and the second latent space location. Based on the distance, the design application generates a style metric that indicates the aesthetic similarity between the sample design and the vehicle designs associated with the fleet of pre-existing vehicles. The design application can also generate new vehicle designs based on the latent space representation and the sample design.

    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for designing manufacturing facilities. A design application imports a computer-aided design (CAD) model and metadata associated with a manufacturing facility to generate a data set that specifies geometric and manufacturing constraints of the manufacturing facility. The design application performs optimization operations based on the data set to identify one or more high-performing designs that assign components to docks in the manufacturing facility. The optimization operations can include genetic optimization operations that generate multiple generations of designs, each of which is evaluated based on a travel distance, congestion, and number of turns associated with paths traversed by components for the design.
