Analogy — From a Unified Perspective

A remarkable ability of people is to easily understand new situations by analogy to old ones, to comprehend metaphors, and to solve problems based on previously solved, analogous problems. All of these may be considered abilities of analogical reasoning (AR). In artificial intelligence (AI), we would like to understand these so that we may capture them in intelligent machines.
