Vagueness: A Conceptual Spaces Approach
The conceptual spaces approach has recently emerged as a novel account of concepts. Its guiding idea is that concepts can be represented geometrically, by means of metrical spaces. While it is generally recognized that many of our concepts are vague, the question of how to model vagueness in the conceptual spaces approach has not been addressed so far, even though the answer is far from straigh...
متن کاملA Perspectivist Approach to Conceptual Spaces
It is a part of everyday life that objects appear different from each perspective they are seen from. Ordinary language has plenty of expressions referring to abstract issues “from my point of view” or “your perspective”. In this article, we argue for a perspectivist approach to conceptual spaces, that is, an approach to concepts as entities whose definition depends on the perspective from whic...
متن کاملFuzzy Logic as a Theory of Vagueness: 15 Conceptual Questions
In spite of its successes as a tool in the field of engineering, fuzzy set theory has yet to achieve the universal footing that probability theory has across the various fields of mathematics, technology, philosophy and psychology. This paper sets out points of critique brought up regarding the fuzzy approach and seeks to analyze them, focusing on the question of whether anything that can be do...
متن کاملMathematical Approach to Vagueness
From 1920, when Lukasiewicz established the 3-valued logic, many other versions have been made, with the purpose of improving or generalizing the precedent system. Fuzzy Logic departs from the multi-valued logic point of view, with real truth values in the closed unit interval. Our paper deals, basically, with analogies and differences between fuzzy and rough characters. Therefore, it belongs t...
متن کاملRepresenting Spatial Vagueness: A Mereological Approach
Spatial reasoning is crucial in many AI application domains, such as robotics, qualitative and naive physics, and some types of planning. Qualitative reasoning is often required ; and in many of these cases, uncertainty or imprecision about the spatial extent of particular entities has to be represented and coped with. This paper develops an axiomatisation of a relation of`crisping' (reducing i...
