Abstract
Generative models for language generation, particularly based on transformers have shown remarkable performance in domains dealing with language.
This dissertation aims to describe our framework that adapts generative models of languages, allowing them to generate non-language objects. This proposed framework allows for generation in a common framework across seemingly unrelated domains. The dissertation tackles three problems of increasing complexity - room-layout generation, CAD-sketch generation, and furniture-layout generation. We solve each of the problems by creating a grammar that describes each object in the problem domain representing each object by a sequence of tokens.
