AbstractIn efficient coding, Information‐Communication‐Coding Theory based on probabilities of occurrence assigns short codes to events with little information content and long codes to events with high information content. This provides a direct relationship of code size to amount of information content.

Semantic Relatedness Measures in Ontologies Using Information Content and Fuzzy Set Theory

open access: closedThe 14th IEEE International Conference on Fuzzy Systems, 2005. FUZZ '05., 2005
The success of the semantic Web is linked with the use of ontologies on the semantic Web. Ontologies help systems understand the meaning of information and can serve as the interface to the inferencing layer of the semantic Web. An increasingly important task is to determine a degree or measure of semantic relatedness between concepts within and across
