“One of the basic axioms of the rational theory of decision under uncertainty is Savage’s (1954) sure-thing principle (STP).

How likely you think something is to happen depends on what you already believe about the circumstances. That is the simple concept behind Bayes’ rule, an approach to calculating probabilities, first ...

Quantum cognition applies principles derived from quantum theory to elucidate the non-classical probabilistic aspects of decision making. This interdisciplinary field challenges conventional, ...

Dr. Pravir Malik is the founder and technologist of QIQuantum and the Forbes Technology Council group leader for Quantum Computing. For decades, the promise of ...

(From left to right): Mathieu Padlewski, Romain Fleury and Hervé Lissek standing with their metamaterial. More photos available in the press kit. What happens when a quantum physicist is frustrated by ...

A new study probing quantum phenomena in neurons as they transmit messages in the brain could provide fresh insight into how our brains function. Our brains process information via a vast network ...

To get around the constraints of quantum physics, researchers have built a new acoustic system to study the way the minuscule atoms of condensed matter talk together. They hope to one day build an ...

Would it be possible to control and even reverse the flow of time in a laboratory setting? While taking a trip back through ...

Researchers have designed a new device that can efficiently create multiple frequency-entangled photons, a feat that cannot be achieved with today's optical devices. The new approach could open a path ...
