In this paper we present quantum-like (QL) representation of the Shafir-Tversky statistical effect. We apply so called contextual approach. The Shafir-Tversky effect is considered as a consequence of combination of a number of incompatible contexts which are involved e.g. in Prisoner’s Dilemma or in more general games inducing the disjunction effect. As a consequence, the law of total probabili...

Global path planning techniques have been widely employed in solving problems, however they found to be unsuitable for unknown environments. Contrarily, the traditional Q-learning method, which is a common reinforcement learning approach local planning, unable complete task multiple targets. To address these limitations, this paper proposes modified called Vector Field Histogram based (VFH-QL) ...

When the classical chi(2) goodness-of-fit test for Hardy-Weinberg (HW) equilibrium is used on samples with related individuals, the type I error can be greatly inflated. In particular the test is inappropriate in population isolates where the individuals are related through multiple lines of descent. In this article, we propose a new test for HW (the QL-HW test) suitable for any sample with rel...

We present a contextualist statistical realistic model for quantum-like representations in physics, cognitive science and psychology. We apply this model to describe cognitive experiments to check quantum-like structures of mental processes. The crucial role is played by interference of probabilities for mental observables. Recently one of such experiments based on recognition of images was per...

The GTPase RhoA is a downstream target of heterotrimeric G(13) proteins and plays key roles in cell migration and invasion. Here, we show that expression in human melanoma cells of a constitutively active, GTPase-deficient Galpha(13) form (G(alpha)(13)QL) or lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC)-promoted signaling through G(alpha)(13)-coupled receptors led to a blockade of chemokine-stimulated RhoA act...

BACKGROUND Various patient reported quality-of-life indicators are independently prognostic for survival in metastatic breast cancer and other cancers. The same measures recorded at first diagnosis of early breast cancer carry no corresponding prognostic information. The present study aims to assess at what time in the disease evolution the prognostic association appears. METHODS Among 8024 p...

We present a conjecture which unifies several conjectures on motives in characteristic p. Introduction In a talk at the June 1996 Oberwolfach algebraic K-theory conference, I explained that, in view of Voevodsky’s proof of the Milnor conjecture, the Bass conjecture on finite generation of K-groups of regular schemes of finite type over the integers implies the rational Beilinson-Soulé conjectur...

If reinforcement learning (RL) techniques are to be used for \real world" dynamic system control, the problems of noise and plant disturbance will have to be addressed. This study investigates the e ects of noise/disturbance on ve di erent RL algorithms: Watkins' Q-Learning (QL); Barto, Sutton and Anderson's Adaptive Heuristic Critic (AHC); Sammut and Law's modern variant of Michie and Chamber'...
