Modeling Multiple Strategies for Solving Geometric Analogy Problems

چکیده
We present an improved computational model for performing geometric analogy. The model combines two previously modeled strategies and makes explicit claims about when people will use one strategy or the other. We compare the model to human performance on a classic problem set. The model’s strategy shifts, along with working memory load, account for most of the variance in human reaction times.

Modeling Analogical Problem Solving in a Production System Architecture
We propose an approach to developing models of analogical reasoning within production system architectures. Though existing theories of analogy have succeeded in capturing many aspects of analogical behavior, they have several limitations. First, the theories use empirical support that focuses almost exclusively on high-level data that illustrate the results of analogy, ignoring low-level data ...
متن کاملINTRODUCTION AND DEVELOPMENT OF SURROGATE MANAGEMENT FRAMEWORK FOR SOLVING OPTIMIZATION PROBLEMS
In this paper, we have outlined the surrogate management framework for optimization of expensive functions. An initial simple iterative method which we call the “Strawman” method illustrates how surrogates can be incorporated into optimization to stand in for the most expensive function. These ideas are made rigorous by incorporating them into the framework of pattern search methods. The SMF al...
متن کاملStrategy Variations in Analogical Problem Solving
While it is commonly agreed that analogy is useful in human problem solving, exactly how analogy can and should be used remains an intriguing problem. VanLehn (1998) for instance argues that there are differences in how novices and experts use analogy, but the VanLehn and Jones (1993) Cascade model does not implement these differences. This paper analyzes several variations in strategies for us...
متن کاملA Fractal Analogy Approach to the Raven's Test of Intelligence
We present a fractal technique for addressing geometric analogy problems from the Raven's Standard Progressive Matrices test of general intelligence. In this method, an image is represented fractally, capturing its inherent selfsimilarity. We apply these fractal representations to problems from the Raven's test, and show how these representations afford a new method for solving complex geometri...
