Quantum Interaction Symposium

26th-28th March 2008 - University of Oxford - Quantum Interaction Symposium.

QI-2008 brings together researchers interested in:

• The advancement of theory and experimentation for applying QM to non-quantum domains
• Applications of QM inspired methods to address, or to more efficiently solve, problems in non-quantum domains (including contrasts between classical vs. quantum methods)
• Applications to quantum domains, such as implementation of AI, or Information Retrieval (IR) techniques, on a quantum computer
• Use of QM to address previously unsolved problems in other fields

Belief revision

I've recently posted a new article about belief revision, which seems to be an important theme: the main result of such article is that the judgement can be described by using more than one qubit. In fact, a correct description of gambler's and hot hand's fallacy requires the use of at least two-qubits. Thus the concept of entanglement and of partial trace is introduced, with a clear interpretation.

After Vaxjo

I've come to Torino full of new ideas.. now I have to put them in order! The workshop has been positive also from the human point of view, which is an important thing.

I am more convinced than before that quantum formalism can be applied to describe judgements and also preferences. I have in mind a possible description of Ellsberg paradox in terms of interference, I only need some time to write it...

Hi to all!
