A method includes determining a plurality of data points, determining a distance between each data point and each of the other plurality of data points, choosing a first one of the plurality of data points, identifying all of the other plurality of data points within a maximum distance of the chosen data point, repeating steps the previous steps to choose a different one of the plurality of data points until all of the data points have been chosen, identifying one or more clusters each having a predefined minimum number, K, of data points within a predefined search radius and analyzing the one or more clusters with respect to K linkages.

Method and apparatus for interactive evolutionary optimization of concepts

A computer implemented method, system, and computer program product include one or more processors providing a framework for building a visual representation of a product concept, the visual representation including one or more of a textual component and a graphical component; one or more processors receiving a designation of an element within at least one of the textual component and the graphical components as a dynamic element; one or more processors associating the dynamic element with a variant list including one or more element variants; one or more processors receiving a selection of a first element variant from the variant list; and one or more processors generating a first instantiation of the visual representation including the first element variant as the dynamic element.

System and method for concept development

A framework is provided for building a visual representation of a product concept including a textual component and/or a graphical component. A designation is received of a first element within at least one of the textual component and the graphical components as a dynamic element. The dynamic element is associated with a variant list including one or more element variants. A second element corresponding to the first element is identified. The second element is linked with the first element. A selection of a first element variant from the variant list is received. A first instantiation of the visual representation is generated including the first element variant as the dynamic element and including the first element variant as the second element.

A computer program product residing on a computer readable medium having a plurality of instructions stored thereon which, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform operations including providing a visual representation of a product concept comprising a textual component comprising at least one dynamic textual element and at least on static textual element and providing text editing functionality of the textual component such that a selection of any text forming a part of the at least one dynamic textual element automatically results in the selection of the entire at least one dynamic textual element wherein the text editing functionality comprises changing a format of at least a part of the at least one dynamic textual element.

System and method for concept development with content aware text editor

A framework is provided for building a visual representation of a product concept including a textual component and/or a graphical component. A first element within one of the textual component and the graphical components is designated as a first dynamic element. A second element within one of the textual component and the graphical component is designated as a second dynamic element. The first dynamic element is associated with a first variant list. The second dynamic element is associated with a second variant list. A constraint is associated between at least a first element variant and at least a second element variant. A selection of a first element variant from the first variant list and a second element variant from the second variant list are received. A first instantiation of the visual representation is generated including the first element variant and the second element variant based upon the constraint.

A computer implemented method, system, and computer program product include one or more processors identifying a dynamic element within framework for building a visual representation of a product concept, the visual representation including one or more of a textual component and a graphical component, the dynamic element associated with a variant list including one or more variant elements; one or more processors identifying one of a longest variant element and a shortest variant element from within the variant list; and one or more processors generating a first instantiation of a visual representation of a product concept including the one of the longest variant element and the shortest variant element as the dynamic element.
