PLANTEAR ESTRATEGIAS PARA ELEVAR EL NIVEL DE

This work was designed and partly conducted while the author was visiting scientist at the Center for Research on Concepts and Cognition of Indiana University, Bloomington; a visit for which the author thanks the memorable discussions with Douglas Hofstadter, Harry Foundalis, Eric Nichols, the late Helga Keller, and the whole FARG team.

Dear Prof. W. Pedrycz,

As requested, you may find the revised manuscript entitled “The Emergence of Choice: Decision-making and strategic thinking through analogies”.

A recent paper [ref. 39] recently proclaimed that “the devil will be in the details for how to model a flexible control structure necessary to mediate between potentially competing candidate-move generators driven by top-down analogy processes and bottom-up chunks and templates during a search process.” I do believe this paper provides a firm step in this direction.

As advised by the editorial remarks and the referee suggestions, I have taken care in detailing the flow of information-processing, from the lowest level of perception, to the highest level of abstract vision and reasoning. Each of the (agent-based) active codelets is presented and its influence on the emergent processing detailed. Furthermore, the full source code is available under the MIT license at

capyblanca.googlecode.com; which not only provides a running program, but also a step for others to build, improve and explore the numerous design decisions that lie ahead for further research. I could expand the text to deal with the thousands of line of source code, but by freely providing it to the community it could turn out as a redundant exercise.

I would like to apologize for the long delay in reviewing the manuscript—in no time has it been considered by any other publication. I have been appointed head of the research program of my school and have had to deal with numerous budgetary and other administrative concerns. Please accept my apologies.

Respectfully yours, I remain,
