Internal preneighbourhood spaces inside any finitely complete category with finite coproducts and proper factorisation structure were first introduced in my earlier paper. This paper proposes a closure operation on internal preneighbourhood…
Recently, Wang et al. discussed the properties of fuzzy information systems under homomorphisms in the paper [C. Wang, D. Chen, L. Zhu, Homomorphisms between fuzzy information systems, Applied Mathematics Letters 22 (2009) 1045-1050], where…
Representations of domains mean in a general way representing a domain as a suitable family endowed with set-inclusion order of some mathematical structures. In this paper, representations of domains via CF-approximation spaces are…
There is a lack of formalism for some key foundational concepts in systems engineering. One of the most recently acknowledged deficits is the inadequacy of systems engineering practices for engineering intelligent systems. In our previous…
The main result of this paper may be stated as a construction of "almost representations" for the canonical presheaves of object extensions of length n on the C-systems defined by locally cartesian closed universe categories with binary…
Pimentel et al. (2020) recently analysed probing from an information-theoretic perspective. They argue that probing should be seen as approximating a mutual information. This led to the rather unintuitive conclusion that representations…
Software verification witnesses are a common exchange format for software verification tools. They were developed to provide arguments supporting the verification result, allowing other tools to reproduce the verification results.…
This report presents some fundamental mathematical results towards elucidating the information-geometric underpinnings of evolutionary modelling schemes for (quasi-)stationary discrete stochastic processes. The model class under…
Several recently proposed methods aim to learn conceptual space representations from large text collections. These learned representations asso- ciate each object from a given domain of interest with a point in a high-dimensional Euclidean…
Let $\mathcal{V}$ be the set of all combinations of expected value of finite objective functions from designing information. I showed that $\mathcal{V}$ is a compact and convex set implemented by signal structures with finite support when…
Formal concept analysis has grown from a new branch of the mathematical field of lattice theory to a widely recognized tool in Computer Science and elsewhere. In order to fully benefit from this theory, we believe that it can be enriched…
Two information structures are said to be close if, with high probability, there is approximate common knowledge that interim beliefs are close under the two information structures. We define an "almost common knowledge topology" reflecting…
Categorization systems are widely studied in psychology, sociology, and organization theory as information-structuring devices which are critical to decision-making processes. In the present paper, we introduce a sound and complete…
We highlight the underlying category-theoretic structure of measures of information flow. We present an axiomatic framework in which communication systems are represented as morphisms, and information flow is characterized by its behavior…
Meaning can be generated when information is related at a systemic level. Such a system can be an observer, but also a discourse, for example, operationalized as a set of documents. The measurement of semantics as similarity in patterns…
The formal analysis of automated systems is an important and growing industry. This activity routinely requires new verification frameworks to be developed to tackle new programming features, or new considerations (bugs of interest). Often,…
Fong developed `decorated cospans' to model various kinds of open systems: that is, systems with inputs and outputs. In this framework, open systems are seen as the morphisms of a category and can be composed as such, allowing larger open…
Despite enormous progress in object detection and classification, the problem of incorporating expected contextual relationships among object instances into modern recognition systems remains a key challenge. In this work we propose…
Searching for new information requires talking to the system. In this research, an Open-domain Conversational information search system has been developed. This system has been implemented using the TREC CAsT 2019 track, which is one of the…
We apply the generalised concept of witness operators to arbitrary convex sets, and review the criteria for the optimisation of these general witnesses. We then define an embedding of state vectors and operators into a higher-dimensional…
