Abstract:
This paper investigates the use of ANNs to model human behaviour in design by comparing the predictive capability of ANNs and engineering students. Function structure models of 15 products are used as input for prediction. The type of information provided varied between topology and vocabulary. Analysis of prediction accuracy showed that ANNs perform comparably to students. However, students are more precise with their predictions. Finally, limitations and future work are discussed, with research questions presented for subsequent research.
