Review # 1 was written on 2012-09-07 00:00:00 Roger Beaupre This is something I read for work. It covers various theories of how the brain discovers and makes use of analogies. Here are a few things I learned from the book: Babies as young as 1 and 2 years old can form analogies between physical situations to solve problems. When you have two nouns together, like "bed pencil" the first acts as a sort of adjective modifying the second. But what attributes of "bed" are retained, and what attributes of pencil? Is it a pencil used at the bedside? A pencil used as a bed by a tiny person? A pencil used for tracing patterns on bedsheets? What makes one more plausible than another? Which relations between objects tend to be chosen? They gathered statistics answering such questions. Most of these methods assume a pre-existing structure of explicit relations between objects that are mapped onto each other in analogy. But analogies in word vectors work very differently than that, so I think about how each of the solutions would be implemented in the system I'm building.

Review # 2 was written on 2017-04-28 00:00:00 Nasser Qaedi Motivačná kniha - aspoň pre mňa. Keď som videla autorovu foto, nenapadlo mi, že prejav bude môcť byť taký svieži a zrozumiteľný. Nová idea (pre mňa) mechanizmu, kde bez pocitu viny nie je rast. A zrozumiteľný model mínového poľa na ceste k self.
