Ambiguitas

Ambiguitas atau ketaksaan informasi, dalam kata-kata, gambar, atau media lain, adalah kemampuan mengekspresikan lebih dari satu penafsiran. Ambiguitas umumnya berbeda dengan ketidakjelasan. Dalam ambiguitas, penafsiran spesifik dan berbeda bisa saja muncul (meski beberapa di antaranya tidak tampak begitu saja), sementara informasi yang tidak jelas sulit menghasilkan penafsiran apapun pada tingkat spesifikasi yang diinginkan.

Konteks turut memainkan peran dalam menyelesaikan ambiguitas. Misalnya, sepotong informasi yang sama bisa bersifat ambigu dalam satu konteks dan tidak ambigu pada konteks lain.
