Information Geometry / Statistical Manifolds

Concept · vector_semantics · hypothesis · visibility: publishable · extraction: auto

The formal home for Tish’s intuition that ‘distance between ideas is meaningful’: the geometry of probability distributions, where the Fisher metric is the geometry. The political-compass scatter is a baby application, not the field. Where geographic epistemology and information theory are already married.

Claude-introduced vocabulary: information geometry, Fisher metric, statistical manifolds. The idea is Tish’s; these words are borrowed scaffolding.
