Abstract
It is difficult to design a visually appealing layout for common users, which takes time even for professional designers. In this paper, we present an interactive layout design system with shadow guidance and layout retrieval to help users obtain satisfactory design results. This study focuses in particular on the design of academic presentation slides. The user may refer to the shadow guidance as a heat map, which is the layout distribution of our gathered data set, using the suggested shadow guidance. The suggested system is data-driven, allowing users to analyze the design data naturally. The layout may then be edited by the user to finalize the layout design. We validated the suggested interface in our user study by comparing it with common design interfaces. The findings show that the suggested interface may achieve high retrieval accuracy while simultaneously offering a pleasant…
