VAGUENESS IN LANGUAGE ANDINFORMATION SYSTEMS
Judith Pinn Carlisle · 2002
This paper looks at various models of vagueness, a phenomenon of language, which leads to ambiguity. Three approaches to defining the vagueness problem are presented: the epistemic, the ontic, and the semantic. Each of these approaches is discussed along with the strengths and weaknesses of each approach. The relevance of the topic to information system research and implementation is undertaken.
