Can semiotics and computers be compatible? Can computation advance
semiotics by enhancing the scientific basis of the theory of signs?
Coupling semiotics, a philosophical and phenomenological tradition
concerned with theories of signs, with computation, a formal
discipline, may seem controversial and paradoxical. Computational
Semiotics tackles these controversies head-on and attempts to
bridge this gap. Showing how semiotics can build the same type of
conceptual, formal, and computational models as other scientific
projects, this book opens up a rich domain of inquiry toward the
formal understanding of semiotic artifacts and processes. Examining
how pairing semiotics with computation can bring more
methodological rigor and logical consistency to the epistemic quest
for the forms and functions of meaning, without compromising the
important interpretive dynamics of semiotics, this book offers a
new cutting-edge, model-driven theory to the field.
