This is the first book to provide an accessible introduction to computational complexity analysis and its application to questions of intractability in cognitive science. It is essential reading for students and researchers who want to understand how cognitive models can be scaled from the lab to situations of real-world complexity.
Part I. Introduction: 1. Introduction; Part II. Concepts and Techniques: 2. Polynomial versus exponential time; 3. Polynomial-time reductions; 4. Classical complexity classes; 5. Fixed-parameter tractable time; 6. Parameterized reductions; 7. Parameterized complexity classes; Part III. Reflections and Elaborations: 8. Dealing with intractability; 9. Replies to common objections; Part IV. Applications: 10. Coherence as constraint satisfaction; 11. Analogy as structure mapping; 12. Communication as Bayesian inference.
