Peyzaj Mimarlığında Metinden Görüntüye: Yapay Zekâ Yaklaşımları

Öz

Peyzaj mimarlığı tasarım çalışmalarında, yaratıcı ve farklı konseptlere sahip mekânların yaratılmasında fikir geliştirme süreci, uzun zamanlar gerektiren bir süreçtir. Teknolojik gelişmelerle birlikte zamanın etkin kullanımı önem kazanmakta ve yapay zekâ (AI) alanında yaratıcı, gerçekçi ve detaylı metinden görsel üreten uygulamalar dikkat çekmektedir. Text-to-Image (T2I) yöntemi ile tasarım fikirlerinin hızlı ve doğru bir şekilde geliştirilmesi açısından, peyzaj mimarlığında AI uygulamalarının kullanımı, akıllara birçok soru getirmektedir. AI tarafından üretilen görseller, mesleki doğruluk ve estetik açıdan ne kadar tatmin edicidir? mesleki terimlerini doğru bir şekilde algılayabilmekte midir? AI ve peyzaj mimarlığı arasındaki genel ilişki durumu nedir? gibi sorulara bu çalışmada cevap aranmaktadır. Bu çalışmada; tasarım alanında kullanılan 50 mesleki terim belirlenmiş ve bu terimler doğrultusunda 6 farklı tasarım konsepti ile 70 kelimelik promptlar oluşturulmuştur. Oluşturulan promptlar kullanılarak, T2I özelliğine sahip Dall-E, MidJourney, LookX ve mnml uygulamalarından görseller üretilmiştir. Üretilen görseller; mesleki uygunluk, görsel estetik, yaratıcılık ve teknik detaylar açısından değerlendirilmiştir. Çalışma sonucunda, seçilen terimler arasında bazı mesleki terimlerin soyut, ileri teknik ve kapsam alanın geniş kavramlar olduğu tespit edilmiştir. AI uygulamalarında mesleki terimlerin doğru bir şekilde algılanabilmekte, peyzaj tasarımında farklı ve yaratıcı konseptlerin geliştirilmesinde tatmin edici görseller elde edebilmektedir. Bu bağlamda, peyzaj mimarlığı ve AI alanında iş birliği yapılarak uygulamaların geliştirilmesine katkı sağlanabilir. Aynı zamanda, bu çalışma; T2I uygulamaları ve peyzaj mimarlığı arasındaki mevcut durumu ortaya koyarak, daha yaratıcı, kaliteli ve detaylı konsept görsellerin üretilmesi açısından geliştirilebilir bir potansiyel olduğunu göstermektedir.

Text to Image in Landscape Architecture: Artificial Intelligence Approaches

Öz

Generating ideas for designing spaces with creative and diverse concepts in landscape architecture design is a time-consuming process. With technological advancements, effective use of time has become increasingly significant, and applications that produce creative, realistic, and elaborate visuals from text in the field of artificial intelligence (AI) have attracted attention. However, the use of AI applications in landscape architecture raises many questions regarding the rapid and accurate development of design ideas through the Text-to-Image (T2I) method: how satisfying are AI-generated visuals in terms of professional accuracy and aesthetics? Can AI accurately perceive professional terms? What is the general relationship between AI and landscape architecture? Apart from coming up with an answer to these questions, this study aims to investigate the potential of text-to-image (T2I) models in generating design concepts for landscape architecture. Fifty professional terms were selected and used to create 70-word prompts across six distinct design concepts. Four popular T2I models (Dall-E, MidJourney, LookX, and mnml) were employed to generate visuals based on these prompts. The images generated were evaluated based on their adherence to professional standards, aesthetic appeal, creativity, and technical accuracy. Results indicated that while AI models could effectively interpret a wide range of professional terms, including abstract and highly technical concepts, there were limitations in capturing the nuanced details of landscape design. This study highlights the potential of AI to assist landscape architects in the early stages of the design process, but also underscores the need for human expertise to refine and optimize AI-generated designs. Future research should explore ways to improve the accuracy and specificity of AI-generated landscape designs, as well as investigate the potential of integrating AI with other design tools and techniques.
