Intrinsically Motivated Computational Creativity

This chapter provides an introduction to the computational modelling of social creativity using multi-agent systems. It reviews …

As the value of computer generated artefacts increases, we need to question how creative software will fit into human culture, both as …

There has been a strong tendency in distributed computational creativity systems to embrace embodied and situated agents for their …

The ambiguity of natural language can be an important source of creative concepts. In compositional languages, a many-to-many network …

As we develop interactive systems involving computational models of creativity, issues around our interaction with these systems will …

This paper briefly examines the evidence for a link between creativity and curiosity and argues that one way to better support creative …

This paper presents a computational model for the construction of novel associations as a component of a larger project on …

Multiple devices, both hardware and software, may come and go at any time in a given room. Software controlling the behaviour of these …

Creativity is often associated with surprise, novelty, usefulness and value. These characteristics do not assist in the development of …

Advances in intelligent agent research, such as curious agents and motivated learning agents, make possible a new kind of intelligent …

Agent technology has been used as an organising mechanism for software systems that focus on modularity and autonomy. This paper …

A Curious Place is modelled on the concept of an intelligent room, with an added capacity for behaving in a curious manner. Intelligent …

This paper presents a possible future direction for agent-based simulation using complex agents that can learn from experience and …

This paper presents a possible future direction for agent-based simulation using complex agents that can learn from experience and …

In this paper, we describe a novel approach to developing computational models of creativity that supports the multiple approaches to …

Creative products are generally recognised as satisfying two requirements: firstly they are useful, and secondly they are novel. Much …

This paper presents a “curious design agent”, i.e. an agent that uses the search for novel designs to guide its design actions. A …

This paper is concerned with the motivation of design agents to promote the exploration of design spaces. A general form of motivation …

This paper presents a computational model of creativity that attempts to capture within a social context an important aspect of the art …
