比较的过程在解决问题、判断、决策、分类和认知中起着至关重要的作用。反过来,确定相似性和差异性对比较起着关键作用。在本章中,我们描述了相似性和比较的形式模型的重要类别:几何,特征,基于验证的,和转换。我们还考虑了相似性是否过于灵活而不能为认知提供稳定的基础,相反,它是否不够灵活而不能解释认知的复杂性。这两个相似性评估和比较认为,提供有价值的通用认知策略。
The process of comparison plays a critical role in problem solving, judgment, decision making, categorization, and cognition, broadly construed. In turn, determination of similarities and differences plays a critical role for comparison. In this chapter, we describe important classes of formal models of similarity and comparison: geometric, featural, alignment-based, and transformational. We also consider the question of whether similarity is too flexible to provide a stable ground for cognition, and conversely, whether it is insufficiently flexible to account for the sophistication of cognition. Both similarity assessments and comparison are argued to provide valuable general-purpose cognitive strategies.
