Knowledge Geometry
Abstract
This paper aims to present what we call knowledge geometry, an alternative theory for spatial representation of features related to information processing, information management, and knowledge management. It is a unique geometric approach for representing intuition, reification, interpretation, and deduction processes, as well as their relations. We employ the concept of cultural filter and use what we call real, conceptual, and symbolic planes in order to support transformations which occur along the perception of a phenomenon. After that, we discuss the use of evaluation systems to judge concepts and also the use of semantic systems as a communication language. Finally, a framework of the knowledge acquisition process in the field of the proposed theory is offered, proving the feasibility of its automation.
