Hi,
I am investigating some concepts about signal processing and relating them to data manipulation. It is somehow difficult because the way computer scientists relate to concepts is very dogmatic, something is either black or white, however I have not found much on "things that under certain circumstances can be considered black-ish, and under another set of circumstances can be considered white-ish" http://freethoughtblogs.com/singham/2012/06/25/shades-of-grey-optical-illusi...
In signal processing there is the concept of amplitude which is just the signal strength. For humans language is like an amplitude communication process where the receiver picks up not only the signal, but also its amplitude depending on context, awareness, previous knowledge, etc. factors which in turn can be considered waves being processed by the ontological biological-organizational complex, the body-mind.
It is tough to describe that a certain concept might have a certain amplitude in some situations and other amplitude in other situations, and perhaps even harder to make a human interface for it. Has anyone attempted it in the past? If Q items are not static entities, what is the best way to convey that they are not? And is it possible or desirable at all?
Perhaps these questions are more suitable for a Wikidata 2.0, or perhaps it is already doable, who knows.
Any thoughts?
Cheers, Micru
