Mathematical Models of Meaning - A Dynamic Systems Approach to Possible World Semiotics

A mathematical model of meaning that captures the dynamics and diversity of meaning-oriented agents. In Partially grounded in a pragmatist approach, this book rethinks the semiotic, statistical, and logical currents of Charles Sanders Peirce’s thought in relation to more recent developments in allied traditions. Putting possible worlds, as well as social relations, at the center of significance, it focuses on the emergence of meaningful behavior among relatively distributed agents that choose in real time, learn over developmental time, or evolve over phylogenetic time.
