Measures of Information

Paul Walton    

Resumen

This paper builds an integrated framework of measures of information based on the Model for Information (MfI) developed by the author. Since truth is expressed using information, an analysis of truth depends on the nature of information and its limitations. These limitations include those implied by the geometry of information and those implied by the relativity of information. This paper proposes an approach to truth and truthlikeness that takes these limitations into account by incorporating measures of the quality of information. Another measure of information is the amount of information. This has played a role in two important theoretical difficulties?the Bar-Hillel Carnap paradox and the ?scandal of deduction?. This paper further provides an analysis of the amount of information, based on MfI, and shows how the MfI approach can resolve these difficulties.
