Abstract:
Product development today faces challenges like customization demands and shorter life cycles. Companies adopt generational approaches to save time and costs but struggle with increased variation and opacity in product portfolios. This paper proposes using AI, specifically UV-Net, to address these issues by converting CAD solids into tensors for classification and retrieval tasks. Experimental results show promise, but challenges remain. Integrating cost considerations and further research can enhance AI-driven design assistance, aiding decision-making in product development.
