Document Summary
Analogy: a comparison between two things, typically on the basis of their structure. Exemplar-based reasoning: reasoning based on particular examples rather than on prototypes or rules. Memory-based reasoning: reasoning based on memories rather than on using more abstract reasoning rules. Instant-based reasoning: reasoning based on a particular instance in time, similar to exemplar-based reasoning. Case-based reasoning: an ai ield that reasons from cases in memory. Primary scene: cognitive representation of experiences that everyone shares, such as swallowing. Correlation-based metaphor: the base metaphor is sensory and the target metaphor is abstract, example prices have fallen sharply . Language: two descriptions: functional and structural description. Functional description: language is a complex code by which agents can communicate information. Complex does not refer to animal language such as bird calls. Structural description: language is a set of symbols that can be arranged in a certain way, also known to the english language as words and sentences.
