ANALOGICAL THINKING
Analogy is currently a very active area of research in both cognitive
psychology and artificial intelligence. Keith Holyoak and I have
developed connectionist models of analogical retrieval and mapping
that are consistent with the results of psychological experiments.
The new models use localist networks to simultaneously satisfy a
set of semantic, structural, and pragmatic constraints. After
providing a general view of analogical thinking, this talk will
describe our model of analog retrieval.
