Enhancing the Aesthetic Appeal of AI-Generated Physical Product Designs through LoRA Fine-Tuning with Human Feedback
This work addresses the challenge of enhancing aesthetic appeal in AI-generated tangible product designs for designers and manufacturers, though it is incremental as it applies an existing method to a specific domain.
This study tackled the problem of aligning AI-generated physical product designs with human aesthetic preferences by using LoRA fine-tuning guided by human feedback, resulting in significant improvements in desirability and aesthetic appeal scores for lamp designs.
This study explores how Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) fine-tuning, guided by human aesthetic evaluations, can enhance the outputs of generative AI models in tangible product design, using lamp design as a case study. By integrating human feedback into the AI model, we aim to improve both the desirability and aesthetic appeal of the generated designs. Comprehensive experiments were conducted, starting with prompt optimization techniques and focusing on LoRA fine-tuning of the Stable Diffusion model. Additionally, methods to convert AI-generated designs into tangible products through 3D realization using 3D printing technologies were investigated. The results indicate that LoRA fine-tuning effectively aligns AI-generated designs with human aesthetic preferences, leading to significant improvements in desirability and aesthetic appeal scores. These findings highlight the potential of human-AI collaboration in tangible product design and provide valuable insights into integrating human feedback into AI design processes.
