This research paper explores the potential of analogical reasoning in artificial intelligence (AI) to improve machine learning models’ understanding of scientific concepts. The study focuses on the role of teacher language models (LMs) in generating analogies that can assist student LMs in grasping new ideas, mimicking human education processes. The results show that free-form analogies can aid LMs in concept understanding and even enable student LMs to use analogies for self-learning, demonstrating their capacity to learn from each other.

This research paper looks at how AI machines can learn better by using something called “analogies”. Analogies are like comparisons between two things that might seem very different. The study uses special computer models called language models (LMs) to see if they can help each other learn new ideas by making these analogies. It found that this method works and the student LMs even got better at using analogies to learn new things on their own.
