The key insight of the Talking Heads experiment is that agents develop their own individual and internal way of categorising the world they see. While, at the same time, through external communication, they negotiate a shared lexicon. Different agents may be talking about the…
Ontologies And Knowledge Bases: Towards A Terminological Clarification
Ontological commitment is an intensional reference to a set of possible worlds
A set of formal constraints like those above, expressed in a suitable modal language, can therefore be used to (partially) characterize a conceptualization, in the sense of excluding unintended extensions of the relevant relations even for possible “worlds” different from the…

...a possible confusion arises between an ontology intended as a particular conceptual framework at the semantic level (interpretations 2-3) and an ontology intended as a concrete artifact at the syntactic level, to be used for a given purpose (interpretations 4-7). This is an…
Conceptualization vs state of affairs
..Referring to the example given, consider a different arrangement of blocks, where c is on the top of d, while a and b together form a separate stack standing on the table (Fig. 4). The corresponding structure would be different from the previous one, generating therefore a…
Where Are The Semantics In The Semantic Web?
Problem of incompatible conceptualizations
Even with a uniform language, there may still be incompatible assumptions in the conceptualization. For example, in [Hayes 96] it is shown that two representations for time, one based on time intervals and another based on time points, are fundamentally incompatible. That is…
