Abstract

A tiling design is very significant for mathematical aspect. There has been some studies on producing tiling designs using a computer. Most of them, however, are difficult to support users’ creativity because several or various output figure cannot be obtained for one input. In this paper, we have proposed a system that can support users to create tile figures for Escher like tiling designs. The system can create several possible candidate figures from the input one, where repetition of reproducing or varying partial shapes of the figure and evaluating or redrawing the figure by users is executed by employing interactive genetic algorithms. We demonstrate that our system can create various tile figures, which are as close as possible to the input figure and reflected to users’ preference.
