Yes, Galaxy Pattern is Meaningful!

Normal spiral galaxies have exponential disks and logarithmic arms (spirals). They must be interrelated and the relation is suggested to be iso-ratio. Assume you come off the disk center by such route that the ratio of the star density on your left side to the one on your right side is constant. The route (iso-ratio curve) turns out to be logarithmic spiral! Such distribution of iso-ratio densi...

Is Semantic Information Meaningful Data?

There is no consensus yet on the definition of semantic information. This paper contributes to the current debate by criticising and revising the Standard Definition of semantic Information (SDI) as meaningful data, in favour of the Dretske-Grice approach: meaningful and well-formed data constitute semantic information only if they also qualify as contingently truthful. After a brief introducti...

When Is ''Nearest Neighbor'' Meaningful?

We explore the effect of dimensionality on the “nearest neighbor” problem. We show that under a broad set of conditions (much broader than independent and identically distributed dimensions), as dimensionality increases, the distance to the nearest data point approaches the distance to the farthest data point. To provide a practical perspective, we present empirical results on both real and syn...
