GUIDED DESIGN GENERATION

A method for guided design generation includes receiving a plurality of image samples for an intended design and generating a first plurality of images by providing a positive latent vector to a first layer out of a plurality of layers and a negative latent vector to remaining layers out of the plurality of layers. Responsive to receiving a first image selection, identifying the first layer out of the plurality of layers generated the first image includes a feature of interest. Determining a feature expression variation for the feature of interest in latent space based on the ranking of a first plurality of generated sample images, wherein the first plurality of generated sample images includes the feature of interest. Responsive to receiving a second plurality of images for a plurality of base features, generating an initial design based on the feature of interest and the plurality of base features.
