Bruno Postle c9320cd7d3 xi7: 9o5 validation run complete — superpose NULL/negative; file b3v veto hatch 
A/B at equal budget (collapsed score): --superpose vs --no-superpose.
- programme-house (budget 3000, seeds 1-5): OFF wins 4/5
- harbor-house  (budget 2500, seeds 1-3): OFF wins 2/3
Relaxation gap (§7.4) small (ratio 1.01-1.23); per-eval collapse removes it
by construction, so the failure mode is geometry-floor dominance, not the gap.
harbor-house 8-code chain misgroups and adds fails -> filed b3v (interchange:false).
Verdict: keep --superpose default OFF.

homemaker-layout

Programme-driven building-layout search over slicing trees. A clean-room Python successor to the Perl Urb project, intended to eventually be 100% Python.

Why a rewrite

Urb represents a building as a binary slicing tree where room sizes are derived top-down from division ratios. That makes room area an emergent property of every cut above it, which:

  • gives the genome low locality (a cut near the root rescales every descendant),
  • makes target room sizes nearly impossible to hit, so the gaussian size penalty dominates fitness, and
  • defeats crossover (transplanted subtrees lose their proportions).

homemaker inverts this: leaves carry target dimensions from the programme and division ratios are solved bottom-up for a fixed topology. The evolutionary search then only explores topology + types + adjacency.

Phase plan

  1. Solver experiment: port Urb's geometry, re-solve ratios from programme targets, score the result against the original via the Perl oracle. ✓
  2. Native Python fitness (retire the Perl oracle). ✓
  3. Memetic search (current): canonical slicing genome + high-locality operators + Nelder-Mead inner loop.

Layout

  • src/homemaker_layout/dom.py — read/write Urb .dom YAML into a Node tree.
  • src/homemaker_layout/geometry.py — faithful port of Urb's top-down geometry.
  • src/homemaker_layout/programme.py — parse patterns.config space requirements.
  • src/homemaker_layout/solver.py — bottom-up ratio solve (scipy).
  • src/homemaker_layout/fitness.py — native Python fitness evaluator.
  • src/homemaker_layout/fitness_cmd.py — homemaker-fitness CLI (drop-in for urb-fitness.pl).
  • src/homemaker_layout/graph.py — leaf-adjacency graph for programme-driven checks.
  • src/homemaker_layout/genome.py — topology genome: base-floor tree + per-storey deltas.
  • src/homemaker_layout/operators.py — high-locality mutation and subtree crossover.
  • src/homemaker_layout/innerloop.py — ratio optimisation inner loop (Nelder-Mead / CMA-ES).
  • src/homemaker_layout/driver.py — memetic search outer loop.
  • src/homemaker_layout/evolve.py — homemaker-evolve CLI entry point.
  • src/homemaker_layout/oracle.py — legacy Perl shim, kept for cross-validation only.
