Title: | Experiments with free concept generation in Divago | Authors: | Pereira, Francisco C. Cardoso, Amílcar |
Issue Date: | 2006 | Citation: | Knowledge-Based Systems. 19:7 (2006) 459-470 | Abstract: | This paper presents a set of experiments we carried out with, Divago, a system that is an attempt to implement our ideas towards a computational model of creativity. It is expected to be able to generate novel concepts out of previous knowledge. Here we show its behaviour with a large dataset constructed independently by other researchers consisting of over 170 nouns (for a project named C3). Each noun is represented with a syntax that is equivalent to the one adopted for Divago. We apply a two step experimentation procedure, which starts by "training" the system with "preferred outcomes" and then allowing it to do free generation, constrained by the pragmatic goal of a given query. We evaluate the results and make a short discussion regarding well-defined criteria of novelty and usefulness. We also present a comparison with a similar experiment done with C3. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10316/4098 | DOI: | 10.1016/j.knosys.2006.04.008 | Rights: | openAccess |
