From Semiotics to Computational
Abstract:
ABSTRACT: Semiotics is a branch of human sciences, which studies the science of signification and representation, involving mainly the phenomena of cognition and communication on living systems. This interconnects somewhat with the study of intelligent systems, where some of the objectives are the study of the phenomena of cognition and communication, but now explicitly under the scope of artificial systems. Computational semiotics corresponds to the proposition of a set of methodologies that in some way try to use the concepts and terminology of semiotics, but composing a framework suitable to be used in the construction of artificial systems. Despite computational semiotics is a new inborn science, there are currently some important contributions that despite still not complete and definitive, help us in understanding the nature of semiotic processes and allow their synthesis and implementation within computational platforms. In this work, we explore one possible pathway along a set of ideas evolving around, which proposes one way of gathering the transition between traditional semiotics and computational semiotics, making it possible to synthesize semiotic systems by means of artificial computing devices. 1.
