Conceptual Networks

Conceptual networks are a way to represent and organize knowledge by illustrating how concepts are connected to one another. Imagine a web where ideas are nodes and the links between them show relationships, such as similarities or categories. For instance, "dog" might connect to "animal," "pet," and "mammal." This structure helps us understand complex information and enhances tasks like reasoning and problem-solving by clarifying how different pieces of information relate. Conceptual networks are widely used in fields like artificial intelligence, education, and cognitive science to model how we think and learn.
