“…The use of Natural Language Processing (NLP) in urban design is becoming more eminent. The widely available textual data in form of user generated social media reviews, thoughts, perceptions, and descriptions have created new opportunities big data analysis at a city scale (Chen & Hsu, 2020;Ataman et al, 2022;Aman et al, 2022;Chen et al, 2017). Research work has been done to review the application of NLP in urban design and studies, the wide range of applications include urban governance and management, public health, land use and functional zones, mobility, and urban design (Cai, 2021).…”

Cities globally are adopting "The 15-Minute City" as an urban response to various crises, including the Covid-19 Pandemic and climate change. However, the challenge of linking location-specific requirements with potential design solutions hinders its effective implementation. To bridge this gap, this paper introduces a novel urban 15 Minute City concept generation tool that applies an artificial intelligence (AI) method called a pre-trained language model (PLM). The PLM model was fine-tuned with structured examples based on 15-Minute City principles. Using a PLM, the tool maps 15-Minute City concepts to a location and project specific prompt, automatically generating neighbourhood design concepts in the form of natural language.

The papers are also available online at the open access cumulative database CumInCAD (http://papers.cumincad.org).The proceedings are the outcome of an extensive collaborative and voluntary effort between the International Reviewing Committee and Paper Selection Committee, with the former consisting of 140 reviewers from over 30 different countries working across the globe. It marks another year of growing quality and strength in the history of CAADRIA. The papers in this publication have been selected through a two-stage double-blind peer review process. Calls for papers in July of 2022 resulted in the submission of 450 abstracts from 37 countries, of which 292 were invited for further development as full paper submission. At least 3 to 4 international reviewers were assigned to conduct a double-blind review of each of the submitted papers. Following the reviewers' recommendation and the Paper Selection Committee's evaluation, 139 papers were finally accepted in February of 2023 for their inclusion in the publication and presentation at the conference.We congratulate the authors for their accomplishment. Our sincere thanks go out to our international reviewers, who volunteered their valuable time and effort. We also thank the organising team in CEPT University for developing the 2023 CAADRIA Conference as a strong collaborative effort between academic institutions, industry and practice. We thank Gabriel Wurzer for his relentless support with customizing the submission and review system to the needs of CAADRIA from the abstract submission all the way to production. Finally, I sincerely thank the CAADRIA community for offering me the opportunity and honour to serve as the chair of the Paper Selection Committee during the past 1 year of preparation.
