A Case-Based Model of Creativity

Abstract

Creating new solutions to problems is an integral part of the problem-solving process. This paper presents a cognitive model of creativity in which a case-based problem-solver is augmented with a set of creativity heuristics. N e w solutions are discovered by solving a slightly different problem and adapting that solution to the original problem. This model has been implemented in a computer program called MINSTREL.
