我提出了一个创造性认知的理论和假设模型，该模型广泛地建立在心理计算的大规模平行视角中，并基于对记忆和感知的各个方面，特别是序列的统计模拟。该理论位于实质上高于神经底层的抽象水平；它对功能而不是详细的机制进行建模，并研究感知的符号表示。我用一系列关于统计模型的学习和生成的计算工作的证据来支持这一提议，并认为这里提出的机制的知觉基础可能会被泛化，最终解释最初的思想本身。
I present a theoretical, hypothetical model of creative cognition, broadly framed within a massively parallel view of mental computation, and based on statistical simulation of aspects of memory and perception, particularly sequence. The theory is located at a level of abstraction substantively above that of neural substrate; it models function and not detailed mechanism and works over symbolic representations of percepts. I support the proposal with evidence from a range of computational work concerning learning of and generation from statistical models and argue that the perceptual grounding of the mechanisms presented here may be generalised away, to account, ultimately, for original thought itself.
