Analogy-making in Situation Theory
نویسندگان
چکیده
Analogy-making is finding analogies between different situations. In this paper, we provide a new model of computational analogy-making which uses Situation Theory as its formal background. Situation Theory is a semantic and logical theory which provides a naturalistic way to represent relations in situations. The system described in this paper is aimed at solving analogy problems made by basic geometric figures in a chessboard-like environment.

The computational modeling of analogy-making.
Our ability to see a particular object or situation in one context as being 'the same as' another object or situation in another context is the essence of analogy-making. It encompasses our ability to explain new concepts in terms of already-familiar ones, to emphasize particular aspects of situations, to generalize, to characterize, to explain or describe new phenomena, to serve as a basis for...
متن کاملSyntactic principles of heuristic-driven theory projection
Analogy making is a central construct in human cognition and plays an important role to explain cognitive abilities. While various psychologically or neurally inspired theories for analogical reasoning have been proposed, there is a lack of a logical foundation for analogical reasoning in arti cial intelligence and cognitive science. We aim to close this gap and propose Heuristic-Driven Theory ...
متن کاملAnalysis of Family Contexts Leading to Self-Harm among Female Students in Yazd
Introduction: The family traditionally has special supportive care functions; However, in recent times, this social institution, along with increasing the fluidity of public culture, has faced significant functional challenges. Among them is the inability of the family to control adolescents formally and informally, which results in general abnormalities such as self-harm. This study aimed to i...
متن کاملMulti-criteria Decision-making in Management under Conditions of Risk and Uncertainty
Decision-making processes cross all sequential managerial functions. The quality of outcomes from these processes is decisive for the prosperity and viability of the managed (entrepreneurial) entity (unit). It depends on the quality of the information available and its use for making a decision. For the sake of decision-making process quality, a manager should not – particularly if the manageme...
متن کاملComputational Models of Analogy-Making An Overview Analysis of Computational Approaches to Analogical Reasoning Minithesis
We provide an overview of research on computational models of analogy-making. The survey ranges from a fairly basic introduction to the topic of computational analogy-making to reporting some quite recent advanced results concerning the study of these systems, their properties and particularities. When doing so, we mainly take a cognitive modeling and computer sciences inspired point of view, m...
