Abstract

This research paper presents the cognitive scientific and neuro-scientific knowledge of creativity. It goes on to develop and propose an Inclusive Connecting Trigger (ICT) to improve the generation quality and generation time of candidate solutions. It also develops a preliminary mathematics for selecting the ICTs and the methods of choosing ICTs. It discusses the scope of ICT to a variety of creative domains. The Inclusive Connecting Trigger is demonstrated and supported by experiments performed and documented is this research paper.
