Analogical Mapping Through Visual Abstraction
نویسندگان
چکیده
Analogical mapping theories tend to focus on matching identical symbols (either for objects or the relations between them). In the domain of visual representations we implemented a mapping system that uses separate domain knowledge (a shape-type superclass hierarchy) to re-represent analogs such that identicality can be found at different levels of abstraction. Such a scheme is useful where shape, and not the spatial layout of the analog images, is important to aligning visual objects.

Analogical mapping across modalities in children with specific language impairment (SLI).
Analogical mapping is a domain-general cognitive process found in language development, and more particularly in the abstraction of construction schemas. Analogical mapping is considered as the general cognitive process which consists in the alignment of two or several sequences in order to detect their common relational structure and generalize it to new items. The current study investigated a...
متن کاملSolving Predictive Analogy Tasks with Anti-Unification
In general, typical cognitive and AI models of analogical reasoning perform a direct mapping from objects of the base domain to objects of the target domain. In contrast to these approaches our model performs mapping via abstraction. Abstraction is calculated as the most specific generalization of the base and the target structure modeled by the formally sound framework of anti-unification. In ...
متن کاملVisual Abstraction in Analogical Problem Solving: A Dissertation Proposal
Analogical problem solving with visual representations is important in many situations. I propose to develop a computational theory of visual analogy that will 1) support the notion that visual abstractions are useful for analogical transfer in cases where there are symbolic mismatches at the non-visual level, and 2) provide a language of primitives that will prove useful for visually represent...
متن کاملAn Algebraic Framework for Solving Proportional and Predictive Analogies
We present an approach to analogical reasoning which is inherently dependent on abstraction. While typical cognitive and AI models of analogy perform a direct mapping from objects of the base to objects of the target domain, our model performs mapping via abstraction. Abstraction is calculated as most specific generalization of the base and the target structure. In contrast to existing models, ...
متن کاملModeling visual problem solving as analogical reasoning.
We present a computational model of visual problem solving, designed to solve problems from the Raven's Progressive Matrices intelligence test. The model builds on the claim that analogical reasoning lies at the heart of visual problem solving, and intelligence more broadly. Images are compared via structure mapping, aligning the common relational structure in 2 images to identify commonalities...
