This book introduces a computationally feasible, cognitively inspired formal model of concept invention, drawing on Fauconnier and Turner's theory of conceptual blending, a fundamental cognitive operation. The chapters present the mathematical and computational foundations of concept invention, discuss cognitive and social aspects, and further describe concrete implementations and applications in the fields of musical and mathematical creativity.

Featuring contributions from leading researchers in formal systems, cognitive science, artificial intelligence, computational creativity, mathematical reasoning and cognitive musicology, the book will appeal to readers interested in how conceptual blending can be precisely characterized and implemented for the development of creative computational systems.

Industry Reviews

"The book is a well-researched multidisciplinary study that is useful for a wide audience interested in the practical aspects of concept invention and expansion and manipulation techniques. ... The work includes a good level of detail, a rich set of references, and pointers to the tools and systems prototyped and presented, making the reader capable of setting up several of the example projects presented. Each chapter is self-contained." (Ahmed Nagy, Computing Reviews, May 25, 2021)
