Analogy as an Organizational Principle in the Construction of Large Knowledge-Bases
[chapter]
2014
Studies in Computational Intelligence
A capacity for analogy is an excellent acid test for the quality of a knowledge-base. A good knowledge-base should be balanced and coherent, so that its high-level generalities are systematically reflected in a variety of lower-level specializations. As such, we can expect a rich, well-structured knowledge-base to support a greater diversity of analogies than one that is imbalanced, disjoint or impoverished. We argue here that the converse is also true: when choosing from a large pool of
