چکیده

Creativity is often associated with surprise, novelty, usefulness and value. These characteristics do not assist in the development of a model for intelligent systems to achieve creative behaviour, since they are characteristics that help identify when something or someone has been creative, as post-facto evaluation. Rather, models of creative behaviour for intelligent systems draw on process models such as analogical reasoning and induction, or on principles such as “make the familiar strange” or “make the strange familiar”. This paper describes how a computational model of curiosity, based on cognitive models of novelty and interest, can be used to focus attention in learning agents. We show how this combination of curiosity and learning can be the core reasoning process in agent-based systems that achieve creative behaviour.

Learning Models for a Curious Place

A Curious Place is modelled on the concept of an intelligent room, with an added capacity for behaving in a curious manner. Intelligent rooms are responsive physical spaces in which human activities are monitored and responses generated which facilitate or augment these activities. Recent trends in intelligent agent research towards intrinsically motivated learning agents allow physical places ...

A Curious Agent for Network Anomaly Detection

This paper presents a novel approach to intrusion detection using curious agents to detect anomalies in network data. Curious agents use computational models of noveltyseeking behavior and interest, based on human curiosity, to reason about their experiences in their environment. They are online, single-pass agents that respond to the similarity, frequency and recentness of their experiences. A...

Designing Toys That Come Alive: Curious Robots for Creative Play

Creative thinking requires imagination, creativity, play, sharing and reflection. This paper presents an architecture for a curious, reconfigurable robot that encourages creative design thinking by permitting designed structures to learn behaviours. These behaviours encourage designers to play with different structures, reflect on the relationship between structure and behaviour and imagine new...

Curious agents and situated design evaluations

This paper presents a possible future direction for agentbased simulation using complex agents that can learn from experience and report their individual evaluations. Adding learning to the agent model permits the simulation of potentially important agent behaviour such as curiosity. The agents can then report evaluations of a design that are situated in their individual experience. The paper d...
