ASP, Amalgamation, and the Conceptual Blending Workflow

چکیده
We present a framework for conceptual blending – a concept invention method that is advocated in cognitive science as a fundamental, and uniquely human engine for creative thinking. Herein, we employ the search capabilities of ASP to find commonalities among input concepts as part of the blending process, and we show how our approach fits within a generalised conceptual blending workflow. Specifically, we orchestrate ASP with imperative Python programming, to query external tools for theorem proving and colimit computation. We exemplify our approach with an example of creativity in mathematics.

متن کاملUpward refinement operators for conceptual blending in the description logic EL++
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...

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...
