The work aims to trace the cultural genes of Liao porcelain from the perspective of the cultural gene theory, construct a map of cultural genes, select the best identifying factors for design and translation, inherit the culture of Liao porcelain and provide context guidance for cultural and creative design. The cultural genes of Liao porcelain were divided into phenotype and genotype according to biological theories. The phenotype included shape, color, pattern and technique, while the genotype included nationality, environment, behavior and use genes. Through analytic hierarchy process (AHP) combined with fuzzy comprehensive evaluation (FCE), the weights of each level of the two types of genes and levels were determined respectively. Then, the weight value was brought into the construction of a fuzzy comprehensive evaluation model. The comprehensive ranking was obtained according to the expert evaluation. The best identification factor of Liao porcelain culture was selected. The key index of factor transformation was determined and the design translation was carried out. In conclusion,the characteristics of Liao porcelain can be more systematically and comprehensively obtained through the comprehensive study on the evaluation model of Liao porcelain cultural genes. The method combined with the mathematical model provides a quantitative basis for the Liao porcelain culture and the design of the translation target factors, which makes the cultural inheritance more participatory and opens the way for the link between culture and artifacts.
