Sažetak
Definability of some terms through others could underlie the idea of a conceptual level of a term which can cover various sciences and domains. To develop a formal model of the conceptual level of the term, some concepts of graph theory are applied, in particular, the notion of a direct definability graph < (x, y) is introduced, where x < y if and only if the term x is directly defined through the term y. Then the conceptual level L (x) of the term x is defined as the maximum length of all paths from any term to the term x in < (x, y).
To compute the longest (shortest) path in a graph to terms, one can use standard algorithms to compute paths to the vertex x in the graph < (x,y). If there are no vicious circles in the system of terminological definitions, then the idea of the conceptual level of each term yields the most convincing results. However, even if there are logical circles in this system, the formalization of the same idea can be generalized and lead to quite satisfactory results.
