Implementing and assessing the hybrid ideation space: a cognitive artefact for conceptual design
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Actual 3D modelling tools and virtual reality systems are affecting creativity during the early stages of the design process. They are often used as communication tools (passive) rather than ideation tools (active) because of their interface complexity. Among other reasons, this is due to abstract commands that demand precision in the execution and always suggest inconsistent default values. This situation is hindering the representational conversation and cognitive artefacts during the design process. Being adapted to this task, ideation is still being done through analogue tools such as sketches and physical models, which are direct ways of representation with the ambiguity, inaccuracy and abstraction of their intuitive depictions. This paper presents the implementation and evaluation of a new innovative system: the Hybrid Ideation Space. This system allows users to sketch and make models all around them in real-time and in scale using a digital tablet and an immersive projection device.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
