Generating vehicle designs using probabilistic programs and reinforcement learning

We present FORGE (Framework for Optimization and Reinforcement-driven Generative Engineering), a probabilistic programming framework for generative design that unifies declarative, symbolic modeling and reinforcement learning (RL). FORGE can learn and refine a design generator through RL based on simulator-derived rewards. We demonstrate FORGE across several vehicle domains. FORGE creates an extensible, interpretable foundation for generative engineering. It can act as both a data generator for machine learning and a design optimizer, offering a practical alternative to purely neural methods.
