[Solomonov Seminar] Seminar na temo "Computational Creativity"

[Marko Grobelnik]

V Evropskem letu kreativnosti Katedra za gradbeno informatiko IKPIR-FGG vabi na predavanje:

Computational Creativity

John S Gero
Krasnow Institute for Advanced Study, USA

Predavanje bo 7.4.2009 ob 11:00 v Svecani dvorani na FGG, Jamova 2, Ljubljana.

For many computers and creativity are incompatible. This talk presents the results of research on computational models of creative 
designing processes. It commences with a model of elementary computational creativity and then describes and presents results from:

  a.. design creativity by combination using genetically-based interpolation,
  b.. design creativity by genetic engineering, and
  c.. design creativity by combination using genetic engineering.
The talk then introduces the notion of "situatedness" as an approach to drive first-person based computational creativity. It then 
describes and presents results from:

  a.. situated design by analogy,
  b.. design using social creativity.

The talk concludes with a model of creativity.
