Résumé

Creativity has been the subject of great interest and even fascination to humans. Though it can be often recognized, it is difficult to be defined in a quantitative manner. At the same time, it seems reasonable to associate creativity to innovation, benefit, and efficiency while avoiding complexity. In this work, we report a development that, starting from a recent approach to complexity as being proportional to the modeling and error implied costs, attempts to integrate these concepts into a possible quantification of creativity. Having obtained a provional expression of creativity in terms of innovation, benefit and complexity, we discuss how creative solution of problems can be understood as a multiple-objective optimization procedure in the solution space underlain by landscapes ofthese 3 properties. Incremental solution as well as an approach based on analogies are discussed A discussion about the implications of the proposed framework is also developed, and some interesting results are obtained, including the identification of the typically varying complexity landscape as one of the major barriers to creativity.
