Cognition as a part of computational creativity

Abstract

Computational creativity and cognitive computing are distinct fields that have developed in a parallel fashion. In this paper, we examine the relationship between the two, concluding that the two fields overlap in one precise way: the evaluation or assessment of artifacts with respect to creativity. Furthermore, we discuss a particular instance of computational creativity, culinary recipe design, and how cognitive informatics and cognitive computation enter into the domain. © 2013 IEEE.
