FaGED pipeline: construct graph representation for open-space public buildings, extract prototypes, and compute (n)GED/FaGED for layout-behavior retrieval.

Requires Python: >=3.10
Keywords: graph-edit-distance, infomap, networkx, architecture, layout

# FaGED Pipeline

**FaGED Pipeline** is a **research-oriented** Python library for comparing **spatial layouts** and **human behavioral patterns** using **function-aware graph representations**.

It can also be used independently to **construct graph representations of complex architectural layouts with open spaces** and to **extract layout prototypes** from such configurations.


---

## Key features

- **Step-wise pipeline (Step0–Step5)** for reproducible experiments  
- Layout graph representation for **complex open-space buildings**  
- **Prototype extraction** via community detection (e.g., Infomap)  
- **GED / nGED / FaGED** computation + retrieval ranking outputs  
- Designed for architectural research workflows

## Installation

```bash
pip install faged-pipeline
```

---

## Minimal example (layout graph → CaG)

```python
from faged_pipeline import run_step2_then_step3, Step3Config

run_step2_then_step3(
    json_folder="DATA_ROOT/json",
    step2_output_folder="OUTPUT_ROOT/step2_basegraphs",
    step3_output_root="OUTPUT_ROOT/step3_transform/variants",
    step3_selected_folder="OUTPUT_ROOT/step3_transform/selected",
    step3_cfg=Step3Config(),
    save_png_step2=True,
    save_selection_csv_step3=True,
)
```

## Data availability

A small example dataset (5 samples) is included for demonstration.  
The complete dataset (150 images) is not publicly released due to data usage agreements.
