Optimization of landscape garden greening design based on multi objective genetic algorithm

Abstract

This paper presents a novel approach to optimize landscape garden greening design using a multi-objective genetic algorithm (MOGA)[1]. Incorporating genetic algorithms into landscape architecture offers a promising avenue for efficiently navigating the complex and multidimensional design space inherent in green infrastructure projects. Through a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of existing literature, this study synthesizes key insights into the application of genetic algorithms in landscape design and identifies gaps for further exploration[2]. Leveraging the evolutionary process of genetic algorithms, our methodology focuses on simultaneously optimizing multiple objectives such as biodiversity conservation, aesthetic appeal, water efficiency, and ecosystem services provisioning[3]. By iteratively evolving and selecting landscape configurations based on fitness criteria derived from these objectives, the MOGA enables designers to explore a diverse range of design alternatives and identify Pareto-optimal solutions that balance competing priorities. The integration of genetic algorithms into landscape design facilitates an iterative and adaptive design process, allowing for the exploration of complex trade-offs and the generation of innovative design solutions. Through a case study application, we demonstrate the effectiveness of the MOGA approach in optimizing landscape garden greening designs, showcasing its potential to enhance sustainability, resilience, and functionality in urban green spaces. This research contributes to the growing body of knowledge on computational design methods in landscape architecture and provides valuable insights for practitioners and researchers seeking to leverage genetic algorithms for optimizing green infrastructure projects.
