Quantum Cognition – Quantum Analogy

چکیده
Attempts to apply the apparatus of quantum mechanics cognition and language have met, understandably, with a degree scepticism within disciplines concerned, but they nevertheless potential for opening exciting new perspectives. In this article, I address question as what it is exactly about these attempts that has drawn such attention – both positive negative in recent years. shall argue distinguishing those aspects do warrant serious consideration by cognitive psychologists linguists irrespective exact nature its relationship classical mechanics. The key lies important role played analogy disciplines.

Quantum Structure in Cognition
The broader scope of our investigations is the search for the way in which concepts and their combinations carry and influence meaning and what this implies for human thought. More specifically, we examine the use of the mathematical formalism of quantum mechanics as a modeling instrument and propose a general mathematical modeling scheme for the combinations of concepts. We point out that quan...
متن کاملQuantum Cognition, 1
Quantum cognition is a new research program that uses mathematical principles from quantum theory to explain human cognition, such as judgment and decision, concepts, reasoning, memory, and perception. This research is not concerned with whether the brain is a quantum computer. Instead, it uses quantum theory as a fresh conceptual framework and a coherent set of formal tools for explaining puzz...
متن کاملQuantum Cognition and Entanglement
The hypothesis that there may be something quantum-like about the human mental function was put forward with “Spooky Activation at Distance” formula which attempted to model the effect that when a word’s associative network is activated during study in memory experiment; it behaves like a quantumentangled system. The human body is a constant flux of thousands of chemical/biological interactions...
متن کاملQuantum walks based on an interferometric analogy
There are presently two models for quantum walks on graphs. The “coined” walk uses discrete time steps, and contains, besides the particle making the walk, a second quantum system, the coin, that determines the direction in which the particle will move. The continuous walks operate with continuous time. Here a third model for quatum walks is proposed, which is based on an analogy to optical int...
متن کاملConductance in quantum wires by three quantum dots arrays
A noninteracting quantum-dot arrays side coupled to a quantum wire is studied. Transport through the quantum wire is investigated by using a noninteracting Anderson tunneling Hamiltonian. The conductance at zero temperature develops an oscillating band with resonances and antiresonances due to constructive and destructive interference in the ballistic channel, respectively. Moreover, we have fo...
