In our previous work, we characterized how synthetic cells extract 'stored' semantic information from their environment. For the same scenario, we present here preliminary results on the computation of 'observed' semantic information. In contrast to stored semantic information, which refers to information exchanged between a system and its environment in its initial distribution, the observed semantic information refers to the information that is dynamically acquired by a system to maintain its own existence. Both the concepts of stored and observed semantic information were first introduced by Kolchinsky and Wolpert in 2018 to take into accounts correlations that carry "significance"or "meaning"for a given system.

Abstract
In our previous work, we characterized how synthetic cells extract 'stored' semantic information from their environment. For the same scenario, we present here preliminary results on the computation of 'observed' semantic information. In contrast to stored semantic information, which refers to information exchanged between a system and its environment in its initial distribution, the observed semantic information refers to the information that is dynamically acquired by a system to maintain its own existence. Both the concepts of stored and observed semantic information were first introduced by Kolchinsky and Wolpert in 2018 to take into accounts correlations that carry "significance"or "meaning"for a given system.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
