自从美国贝尔电话研究所数学家申农1948年发表《通讯的数学理论》以来,信息理论有了迅猛的发展,并被日益应用到广泛的领域。其中的一些基本思想和基础性概念也成为哲学家们思考的对象。人们就诸如“信息的本质”等问题争论不休,至今没有形成一致的见解。本文拟从新的角度,用形式化方法来考察信息的三种存在方式、信息的实质及信息的计量等问题,旨在摆脱目前理论上的某些困扰。
Since the publication of The Mathematical Theory of Communication by Shen Nong, a mathematician at Bell Telephone Institute in the United States, in 1948, information theory has developed rapidly and has been increasingly applied to a wide range of fields. Some of these basic ideas and basic concepts have also become the objects of philosophers' thinking. People have been debating issues such as “the nature of information,” and so far no consensus has been reached. This article intends to examine the three ways of existence of information, the nature of information and the measurement of information with a new approach from the perspective of formalization so as to get rid of some of the current problems in theory.
