Quantum Adaptivity in Biology: From Genetics to Cognition
Author: Masanari Asano
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 9401798192
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 185
Book Description
This book examines information processing performed by bio-systems at all scales: from genomes, cells and proteins to cognitive and even social systems. It introduces a theoretical/conceptual principle based on quantum information and non-Kolmogorov probability theory to explain information processing phenomena in biology as a whole. The book begins with an introduction followed by two chapters devoted to fundamentals, one covering classical and quantum probability, which also contains a brief introduction to quantum formalism, and another on an information approach to molecular biology, genetics and epigenetics. It then goes on to examine adaptive dynamics, including applications to biology, and non-Kolmogorov probability theory. Next, the book discusses the possibility to apply the quantum formalism to model biological evolution, especially at the cellular level: genetic and epigenetic evolutions. It also presents a model of the epigenetic cellular evolution based on the mathematical formalism of open quantum systems. The last two chapters of the book explore foundational problems of quantum mechanics and demonstrate the power of usage of positive operator valued measures (POVMs) in biological science. This book will appeal to a diverse group of readers including experts in biology, cognitive science, decision making, sociology, psychology, and physics; mathematicians working on problems of quantum probability and information and researchers in quantum foundations.

Open Quantum Systems in Biology, Cognitive and Social Sciences
Author: Andrei Y. Khrennikov
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3031290240
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 371
Book Description
This book mathematically analyzes the basic problems of biology, decision making and psychology within the framework of the theory of open quantum systems. In recent years there has been an explosion of interest in applications of quantum theory in fields beyond physics. The main areas include psychology, decision-making, economics, finance, social science as well as genetics and molecular biology. The corresponding models are referred to as quantum-like; they don’t concern any genuine physical processes in the human brain. Quantum-like models reflect the special features of information processing in biological, cognitive, and social systems which match well with the quantum formalism. This formalism gives rise to the quantum probability model (QP) which differs essentially from Kolmogorov's classical probability model. QP also serves as the basis for quantum information theory. Recently QP has been widely applied to the resolution of the basic paradoxes of decision making theory and to modeling experimental data stemming from cognition, psychology, economics, and finance thereby shedding light on probability fallacies and irrational behavior. In this book, the theory of quantum instruments and the quantum master equation are applied to the modeling of biological and cognitive processes, in particular, to the stability of complex biological and social systems interacting with their environment. An essential part of the book is devoted to the theory of the social laser and the Fröhlich condensate.

ISBN: 1003813232
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 460
Book Description
Bioinformatics and Computational Biology: Technological Advancements, Applications and Opportunities is an invaluable resource for general and applied researchers who analyze biological data that is generated, at an unprecedented rate, at the global level. After careful evaluation of the requirements for current trends in bioinformatics and computational biology, it is anticipated that the book will provide an insightful resource to the academic and scientific community. Through a myriad of computational resources, algorithms, and methods, it equips readers with the confidence to both analyze biological data and estimate predictions. The book offers comprehensive coverage of the most essential and emerging topics: Cloud-based monitoring of bioinformatics multivariate data with cloud platforms Machine learning and deep learning in bioinformatics Quantum machine learning for biological applications Integrating machine learning strategies with multiomics to augment prognosis in chronic diseases Biomedical engineering Next generation sequencing techniques and applications Computational systems biology and molecular evolution While other books may touch on some of the same issues and nuances of biological data analysis, they neglect to feature bioinformatics and computational biology exclusively, and as exhaustively. This book's abundance of several subtopics related to almost all of the regulatory activities of biomolecules from where real data is being generated brings an added dimension.

Quantum-Like Models for Information Retrieval and Decision-Making
Author: Diederik Aerts
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3030259137
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 178
Book Description
Recent years have been characterized by tremendous advances in quantum information and communication, both theoretically and experimentally. In addition, mathematical methods of quantum information and quantum probability have begun spreading to other areas of research, beyond physics. One exciting new possibility involves applying these methods to information science and computer science (without direct relation to the problems of creation of quantum computers). The aim of this Special Volume is to encourage scientists, especially the new generation (master and PhD students), working in computer science and related mathematical fields to explore novel possibilities based on the mathematical formalisms of quantum information and probability. The contributing authors, who hail from various countries, combine extensive quantum methods expertise with real-world experience in application of these methods to computer science. The problems considered chiefly concern quantum information-probability based modeling in the following areas: information foraging; interactive quantum information access; deep convolutional neural networks; decision making; quantum dynamics; open quantum systems; and theory of contextual probability. The book offers young scientists (students, PhD, postdocs) an essential introduction to applying the mathematical apparatus of quantum theory to computer science, information retrieval, and information processes.
