Abstract

  Architecture is a discipline that contributes to science when it is related to
the construction of buildings and art when it is related to the pleasure of the viewer
and the user of these buildings. Aesthetics is the discipline that studies the pleasure
of humans and how people approach the world through their senses. Humancomputer interaction advances every day in our life. This paper discusses concepts
behind architecture aesthetic evaluation methodologies by humans and Artificial
Intelligence (AI). The first part of this paper identifies some philosophers with their
theories about aesthetics that helps in understanding how people were concerned
about art and how they relate it to their life. Also, the discussion about neuroaesthetics helps in studying the biological basis of aesthetic experience. The second
part discusses recent applications of AI in evaluating aesthetics and how people
interact with AI and how to build a reliable AI system that people will enjoy
interacting with it. The third part distinguishes AI methods that are used in
architecture that help in storing and analyzing huge amounts of data that the human 
brain can`t interpret. Finally, the paper concludes with the main guidelines for
establishing an integrated system for architectural aesthetics evaluation.
