Abstract

The information in a theory can be evaluated by measuring either its distance from the perfect theory or by measuring its distance from the right answer to the information seeking question that led to it. The measures here are provided by the Tichy-Hilpinen-Oddie-Niiniluoto-likeness measures which were introduced in the context of the philosophical problem of verisimilitude. It does not use or depend on probabilities or uncertainty and it permits false views or theories to possess information

Abstract

Proposes a linguistics and semantics based framework for analyzing information portrayed in different media, for example, text, diagrams, and maps. The framework attaches information to propositions, then analyzes text and diagrams as being interpreted languages with the ability to refer to propositions; and if expressions in the different media refer to the same propositions then they are inter translatable. Illustrates the approach using Venn diagrams
