Preface
We enjoy automation of more and more human activities. Automation enters the domain of analytical efforts: more and more elements of knowledge mining are turned into algorithms, for example, elements of modeling, optimization, information search and processing, etc. What has been an art becomes a standard routine, an algorithm realized in a software. But one fortress seems to stay bold and independent: it is still unclear how a new idea or new paradigm can be generated as the result of an algorithm. If it were possible, the conceptual design or invention could have been a controllable and predictable process. Computers could have generated new knowledge, new ideas, submit new research papers, and file new patents. . . Many efforts in artificial intelligence or literature-based discovery research are spent to mimic, to support, or to automate creative thinking, heuristic synthesis, and hypothesis generation. The book contributes to the development and discussion on one of the most promising ideation tool: the theory for inventive problem solving (TRIZ). We invited an excellent crowd of TRIZ researchers and practitioners of different regions,
