A hybrid classical-quantum workflow for natural language processing

Hybrid Connectionist Natural Language Processing

Quantum Algorithms for Compositional Natural Language Processing

We propose a new application of quantum computing to the field of natural language processing. Ongoing work in this field attempts to incorporate grammatical structure into algorithms that compute meaning. In [5, 7], Coecke, Sadrzadeh and Clark introduce such a model (the CSC model) based on tensor product composition. While this algorithm has many advantages, its implementation is hampered by ...

Quantum computation and natural language processing

In this thesis, a novel approach to natural language understanding inspired by quantum mechanical principle is proposed. It is based on an analogy between the physical objects at the quantum level and human’s mental states. In this way, the physical and the mental phenomena are to be understood within the same framework. It is also proposed that the apparent differences between mind and matter ...

A Logical Language for Natural Language Processing

We present a formal description of a logical language that is based on a propositional semantic network. Variables in this language are not atomic and have potentially complex structure. We start from the individual components of a semantic network system, atomic nodes and relations that connect nodes, and provide a complete speci cation for the structure of nodes and a subsumption procedure be...

Hybrid classical-quantum dynamics

A hybrid formalism is proposed for interacting classical and quantum sytems. This formalism is mathematically consistent and reduces to standard classical and quantum mechanics in the case of no interaction. However, in the presence of interaction, the correspondence principle is violated. PACS numbers: 03.65.Bz, 03.65.Sq ∗ Electronic mail: [email protected], [email protected]
