Analogy with Qualitative Spatial Representations Can Simulate Solving Raven’s Progressive Matrices

چکیده
We use SME, a domain-general model of analogy, to solve a set of problems from the Raven’s Progressive Matrices. SME is used in a two-stage mapping process which we have previously shown to be effective for solving geometric analogy problems. Each problem is drawn in PowerPoint and input into sKEA, our sketch understanding system. sKEA automatically computes qualitative representations of the drawings, using a spatial representation scheme motivated by research on human perception. We show that the representations generated by sKEA can be used with SME to solve the Raven’s Progressive Matrices problems, without using any processes specifically designed for the task.

Using Qualitative Representations and Analogical Mapping to Solve Problems from a Spatial Intelligence Test
We show how qualitative spatial representations can be used with the Structure-Mapping Engine (SME), a domain-general model of analogy, to solve a set of problems from the Raven’s Progressive Matrices test. SME is used in a two-stage mapping process which we have previously shown to be effective for solving geometric analogy problems. Each problem is drawn in PowerPoint and input into sKEA, our...
متن کاملA Structure-Mapping Model of Raven’s Progressive Matrices
We present a computational model for solving Raven’s Progressive Matrices. This model combines qualitative spatial representations with analogical comparison via structuremapping. All representations are automatically computed by the model. We show that it achieves a level of performance on the Standard Progressive Matrices that is above that of most adults, and that the problems it fails on ar...
متن کاملTaking a Look (Literally!) at the Raven’s Intelligence Test: Two Visual Solution Strategies
The Raven’s Progressive Matrices intelligence test is widely used as a measure of Spearman’s general intelligence factor g. Although Raven’s problems resemble geometric analogies, prior computational accounts of solving the test have been propositional. Studies of both typical and atypical human behavior suggest the possible existence of visual strategies; for example, neuroimaging data indicat...
متن کاملAddressing the Raven's Progressive Matrices Test of "General" Intelligence
The Raven’s Progressive Matrices (RPM) test is a commonly used test of general human intelligence. The RPM is somewhat unique as a general intelligence test in that it focuses on visual problem solving, and in particular, on visual similarity and analogy. We are developing a small set of methods for problem solving in the RPM which use propositional, imagistic, and multimodal representations, r...
متن کاملReasoning on the Raven's Advanced Progressive Matrices Test with Iconic Visual Representations
Although the problems on Raven’s Progressive Matrices intelligence tests resemble geometric analogies, studies of human behavior suggest the existence of two qualitatively distinct types of strategies: verbal strategies that use propositional representations and visual strategies that use iconic representations. However, all prior computational models implemented to solve these tests have model...
