Abstract:The advent of large language models (LLMs) has opened up new opportunities in the field of mobile task automation. Their superior language understanding and reasoning capabilities allow users to automate complex and repetitive tasks. However, due to the inherent unreliability and high operational cost of LLMs, their practical applicability is quite limited. To address these issues, this paper introduces MemoDroid, an innovative LLM-based mobile task automator enhanced with a unique app memory. MemoDroid emulates the cognitive process of humans interacting with a mobile app -- explore, select, derive, and recall. This approach allows for a more precise and efficient learning of a task's procedure by breaking it down into smaller, modular components that can be re-used, re-arranged, and adapted for various objectives. We implement MemoDroid using online LLMs services (GPT-3.5 and GPT-4) and evaluate its performance on 50 unique mobile tasks across 5 widely used mobile apps. The results indicate that MemoDroid can adapt learned tasks to varying contexts with 100% accuracy and reduces their latency and cost by 69.22% and 77.36% compared to a GPT-4 powered baseline.
Abstract:Deep learning has recently been applied to various research areas of design optimization. This study presents the need and effectiveness of adopting deep learning for generative design (or design exploration) research area. This work proposes an artificial intelligent (AI)-based design automation framework that is capable of generating numerous design options which are not only aesthetic but also optimized for engineering performance. The proposed framework integrates topology optimization and deep generative models (e.g., generative adversarial networks (GANs)) in an iterative manner to explore new design options, thus generating a large number of designs starting from limited previous design data. In addition, anomaly detection can evaluate the novelty of generated designs, thus helping designers choose among design options. The 2D wheel design problem is applied as a case study for validation of the proposed framework. The framework manifests better aesthetics, diversity, and robustness of generated designs than previous generative design methods.
