Gauquelin experimented with a number of house-like divisions. His 12 sector division is virtually the same as Placidian houses and his 36 sectors are basically a sort of "decanate" division of these.

Incidently, the his statistics slightly favor the 12 sector division (translation, Placidian) and none of the other divisions he experimented with yielded more significant results.
