Creativity in Conceptual Spaces

چکیده
The main aim of this paper is contributing to what in the last few years has been known as computational creativity. This will be done by showing the relevance of a particular mathematical representation of Gärdenfors’s conceptual spaces to the problem of modelling a phenomenon which plays a central role in producing novel and fruitful representations of perceptual patterns: analogy.

Conceptualizing Creativity: From Distributional Semantics to Conceptual Spaces
This paper puts forth a method for discovering computationally-derived conceptual spaces that reflect human conceptualization of musical and poetic creativity. We describe a lexical space that is defined through co-occurrence statistics, and compare the dimensions of this space with human responses on a word association task. Participants’ responses serve as external validation of our computati...

Conceptual blending is a mental process that serves a variety cognitive purposes, including human creativity. In this line of thinking, human creativity is modeled as a process that takes different mental spaces as input and combines them into a new mental space, called a blend. According to this form of combinational creativity, a blend is constructed by taking the commonalities among the inpu...
متن کاملComputational Creativity: Improv Agents and Conceptual Blending
Conceptual blending (CB) is a basic mental operation that plays a fundamental role in the construction of meaning in our everyday life. The core of CB is the partial matching of two input mental spaces and the selective projection from those inputs into a novel ‘blended’ mental space, which then dynamically develops an emergent structure. Improvisational acting is one specialized domain in whic...
متن کاملSituated interpretation in computational creativity
This paper describes, formalizes and implements an approach to computational creativity based on situated interpretation. The paper introduces the notions of framing and reframing of conceptual spaces based on empirical studies as the driver for this research. It uses concepts from situated cognition, and situated interpretation in particular, to be the basis of a formal model of the movement b...
متن کاملUpward Refinement for Conceptual Blending in Description Logic: An ASP-based Approach and Case Study in EL++
Conceptual blending is understood to be a process that serves a variety of cognitive purposes, including creativity, and has been highly influential in cognitive linguistics. In this line of thinking, human creativity is modeled as a blending process that takes different mental spaces as input and combines them into a new mental space, called a blend. According to this form of combinatorial cre...
