We investigated experimentally how humans perceive geometric figures in geometric proportional analogies and discovered that subjects perceive structures within the figures which are suitable for solving the analogy. Humans do not perceive the elements within a figure individually or separately, but cognize the figure as a structured whole. Furthermore, the perception of each figure in the series of analogous figures is influenced by the context of the whole analogy. A computational model which shall reflect human cognition of geometric figures must be flexible enough to adapt the representation of a geometric figure and produce a similarly structured representation as humans do while solving the analogy. Furthermore, it must be able to take into account the context, i.e. structures and transformations in other geometric figures in the analogy. © 2009 Springer Berlin Heidelberg. |
