How Creative Should Creators Be To Optimize the Evolution of Ideas? A Computational Model
There are both benefits and drawbacks to creativity. In a social group it is not necessary for all members to be creative to benefit from creativity; some merely imitate or enjoy the fruits of others’ creative efforts. What proportion should be creative? This paper outlines investigations of this question carried out using a computer model of cultural evolution referred to as EVOC (for EVOlutio...
متن کاملTHE CREATIVE VALUE OF BAD IDEAS A computational model of creative ideation
This paper analyses two ideation principles: idea accessibility and idea connectivity. Access refers to the likelihood to generate a particular idea or set of ideas for a given design task. Connectivity refers to the likelihood of one idea leading to other ideas. These principles are evaluated through a computational model. The results suggest new metrics to assess the value of new ideas. Evalu...
متن کاملHow Creative Ideas Take Shape
According to the honing theory of creativity, creative thought works not on individually considered, discrete, predefined representations but on a contextually-elicited amalgam of items which exist in a state of potentiality and may not be readily separable. This leads to the prediction that analogy making proceeds not by mapping correspondences from candidate sources to target, as predicted by...
متن کاملHow Hybrid Should a Hybrid Model Be?
We present a perspective on the nature of hybridness withinhybrid symbolic/connectionistmodels of cognition. We discuss the qualities that differentiate apparently hybrid models from those which truly accrue properties of the complementary types of technology, and argue that the latter type of model is constituted by a stringent set of mappings between the component systems, mappings which pres...
متن کاملHow Big Should the Monster Model Be?
The 1970’s witnessed two attempts to organize large areas of mathematics by introducing a structure in which all of that mathematics took place. Both of these programs explicitly invoke large cardinal hypotheses; advocates of both programs deny that these hypotheses are necessary. There were a few years ago no extant metatheorems justifying these conclusions (but see McLarty [23]). By a metathe...
