| Abstract: |
Conceptual blending has been employed very successfully to understand the process of concept invention,
studied particularly within cognitive psychology and
linguistics. However, despite this influential research,
within computational creativity little effort has been
devoted to fully formalise these ideas and to make
them amenable to computational techniques. We here
present the basic formalisation of conceptual blending,
as sketched by the late Joseph Goguen, and show how
the Distributed Ontology Language
DOL
can be used to
declaratively specify blending diagrams. Moreover, we
discuss in detail how the workflow and creative act of
generating and evaluating a new, blended concept can
be managed and computationally supported within Ontohub, a DOL-enabled theory repository with support
for a large number of logical languages and formal linking constructs. |
