Congratulations to Faheem Hassan Zunjani and Dr. Dr. Ana-Maria Oltetenanu! Their paper with the title "Towards Reframing Codenames for Computational Modelling and Creativity Support using Associative Creativity Principles" was accepted at the 12th ACM Conference on Creativity & Cognition.

The conference will take place in San Diego, California, June 23-26, 2019.

Abstract

Using games to model, measure and increase creativity in children and adults would be a very engaging path to social impact and empirical progress. This paper proposes an approach to reframe the new and popular board game Codenames using associative creativity principles. The Remote Associates Test (RAT) is a test measuring creativity as a function of associative ability. comRAT-C is a previous computational cognitive system that can solve the RAT using associative and convergence principles. In this paper, we formalise Codenames using associative principles from comRAT-C. A way to computationally model and measure the difficulty of Codenames is proposed. We discuss whether Codenames or a future variant of it can be used in creativity research.
