A Simple and Automatic Typesetting Method Based on BM Value of Interface Aesthetics and Genetic Algorithm

After more than ten years of development, the evaluation system of interface aesthetics has been gradually applied to the evaluation of the layout of various interface elements, but it is still difficult to guide the actual interface design. In this paper, starting from Measure of Balance, one of the evaluation indexes of interface aesthetics, and combining with the genetic algorithm, a simple automatic typesetting algorithm was constructed on Grasshopper (Rhino) Visual programming platform, and the results of its optimization were evaluated with satisfaction. The evaluation results show that this automatic typesetting algorithm produces some satisfactory results, and it can be better applied to the automatic typesetting of simple graphics and text. However, for complex graphic typesetting, the automatic typesetting algorithm needs to be further optimized, because this algorithm is only based on the BM value of interface aesthetics. When the BM value is maximum, only the balance degree is optimal, which does not represent that the overall interface aesthetics is optimal. Therefore, it is necessary to introduce other interface aesthetics evaluation indexes to supplement and build a more mature comprehensive index of interface aesthetics before it can be better applied to the actual interface design.
