Abstract

Being creative in Graphic Design often requires protected experimentation processes. We present an evolutionary engine for generating glyphs, aiding designers to explore during the creative process. The system employs a Genetic Algorithm to evolve svc using both interactive and automatic fitness assignment. We present topological variation operators that promote the exploration of adequate topologies and we compare the performance of topological and conventional operators for generating uppercase "A"s. The results demonstrate that the topological crossover operator performs more efficiently both regarding fitness and phenotypes.
