Although supported by extensive anecdotal evidence, only recently design-by-analogy has been proven to occur often in problem solving and idea generation. However, the circumstances which facilitate problem solving and creative idea generation by analogy are not well understood and most analogies are not developed by applying a formal design-by-analogy methodology. Furthermore, most software tools which aid in finding and/or explaining analogies are based on manually assembled databases, which require a large amount of interactive work to be constructed and maintained. This paper examines the use of automatically distilled product characteristics, called Product Aspects, as a way to automatically and systematically identify candidate products for design-by-analogy. Case studies illustrate this idea generation methodology for three different target products.
