Towards a Semantic Information Theory (Introducing Quantum Corollas)

The field of Information Theory is founded on Claude Shannon's seminal ideas relating to entropy. Nevertheless, his well-known avoidance of meaning (Shannon, 1948) still persists to this day, so that Information Theory remains poorly connected to many fields with clear informational content and a dependence on semantics. Herein we propose an extension to Quantum Information Theory which, subject to constraints, applies quantum entanglement and information entropy as linguistic tools that model semantics through measures of both difference and equivalence. This extension integrates Denotational Semantics with Information Theory via a model based on distributional representation and partial data triples known as Corolla.
