Analysis, Clarification and Extension of the Theory of Strongly Semantic Information
Etica and Politica / Ethics and Politics (2):246-254 (2011)
Abstract
This paper analyzes certain technical details of Floridi’s Theory of Strongly Semantic Information. It provides a clarification regarding desirable properties of degrees of informativeness functions by rejecting three of Floridi’s original constraints and proposing a replacement constraint. Finally, the paper briefly explores the notion of quantities of inaccuracy and shows an analysis that mimics Floridi’s analysis of quantities of vacuityLinks
