Analogy as a search procedure: a dimensional view
Matías Osta‐Vélez, Peter Gärdenfors · Journal of Experimental & Theoretical Artificial Intelligence · 2022
In this paper, we outline a comprehensive approach to composed analogies based on the theory of conceptual spaces. Our algorithmic model understands analogy as a search procedure and builds upon the idea that analogical similarity depends on a conceptual phenomena called ‘dimensional salience.’ We distinguish between category-based, property-based, event-based, and part-whole analogies, and propose computationally-oriented methods for explicating them in terms of conceptual spaces.
