Acting on Conceptual Spaces in Cognitive Agents
نویسندگان
چکیده
Conceptual spaces were originally introduced by Gärdenfors as a bridge between symbolic and connectionist models of information representation. In our opinion, a cognitive agent, besides being able to work within his (current) conceptual space, must also be able to ‘produce a new space’ by means of ‘global’ operations. These are operations which, acting on a conceptual space taken as a whole, generate other conceptual spaces.

Computational 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 کاملComposition operators acting on weighted Hilbert spaces of analytic functions
In this paper, we considered composition operators on weighted Hilbert spaces of analytic functions and observed that a formula for the essential norm, gives a Hilbert-Schmidt characterization and characterizes the membership in Schatten-class for these operators. Also, closed range composition operators are investigated.
متن کاملPharaoh: Conceptual Blending of Cognitive Scripts for Computationally Creative Agents
Improvisational acting is a creative group performance where actors co-construct stories on stage in real-time based on actors’ perceptions of the environment. The Digital Improv Project has been engaged in a multi-year study of the cognitive processes involved in improvisational acting. This better understanding of human cognition and creativity has led to formal computational models of so...
متن کاملCompromise in Multi-Agent Blends
A blend is typically conceived as a systematic integration of conceptual spaces by a single cognitive agent for a particular pragmatic purpose. We consider here an interesting class of ‘macro’ blends that involve multiple cognitive agents, each of which contribute different spaces to the integration. Mythology is one such ‘macro’ type of blend, since rich mythic pantheons such as that of Hellen...
متن کاملFast Qualitative Reasoning about Categories in Conceptual Spaces
Categorization is a central task in cognitive science and artificial intelligence. Efficient reasoning about categories is becoming of great importance as intelligent agents are required to perform complex tasks in data-rich environments. Gärdenfors and Williams [6] introduce a robust framework for categorization and reasoning about categories within conceptual spaces. This paper extends their ...
