Last week Rhys Goldstein and I had a blast joining Sol Amour and Jacob Small during the Dynamo Office Hours session on Packages of Note, something I mentioned in a recent post. We spent some time stepping through a few samples for both Space Analysis and VASA, to give a rough sense of […]

Rhys Goldstein, an Autodesk Research colleague with whom I've had the great pleasure of collaborating on various projects, over the years, has written an excellent explainer article that has just been published in Towards Data Science. This is intended as a companion to our paper published in the Journal of Artificial Intelligence Research, something I […]

In a recent post I hinted at a really impressive project that is being unveiled today in the exhibit hall of AU 2022. (My involvement was as usual pretty minor, primarily relating to data visualization, while the really impressive work was around designing and printing it.) The project is a 5 metre long single-cantilevered (in […]

I'm very happy to share the news that a paper authored by current and former members of Autodesk Research has been published in the open access Journal of Artificial Intelligence Research (JAIR). The paper is entitled "Path Counting for Grid-Based Navigation" and talks in depth about the algorithm developed to power the Space Analysis package […]

The Autodesk Construction Cloud team kindly shared a post on LinkedIn, last week, about a project I participated in. There's a new book from Springer on "Innovation in Construction" for which I contributed a chapter called "Cutting-Edge Practical Research on Generative Design, IoT and Digital Twins". This chapter weighs in at 29 pages – of […]

On Monday I hopped onto the train to Geneva and from there onto the TGV to Paris Gare de Lyon. I was in Paris for BIM World, where we displayed the Dar 2m Smart Bridge. It was my first time seeing the bridge in person, which was a really exciting moment for me. After checking […]
