Abstract
Semantic networks consist of a set of concepts or nodes tied together by relationships or links and have been employed as a model of human memory (Quillian, 1968). An example is given in Figure 1 (taken from Tuthill, 1990). In his book Computer-Aided Creativity, Ben-Zion Sandler describes a simulation of associative thinking (Sandler, 1994) in which a computer program searches out all of the idea chains in a semantic network. In this work a large associative network has been created that relates the various concepts involved in the field of cognitive science and artificial intelligence. This knowledge base then is searched for new relationships and ideas.
