Analyizing the Conjunction Fallacy as a Fact
Since the seminal paper by Tversky and Kahneman, the conjunction fallacy has been the subject of multiple debates and become a fundamental challenge for cognitive theories in decision-making.
Measuring Conceptual Entanglement in Collections of Documents
Conceptual entanglement is a crucial phenomenon in quantum cognition because it implies that classical probabilities cannot model non--compositional conceptual phenomena.
Modeling Meaning Associated with Documental Entities: Introducing the Brussels Quantum Approach
We show that the Brussels operational-realistic approach to quantum physics and quantum cognition offers a fundamental strategy for modeling the meaning associated with collections of documental entities.
Quantum cognition goes beyond-quantum: modeling the collective participant in psychological measurements
In psychological measurements, two levels should be distinguished: the 'individual level', relative to the different participants in a given cognitive situation, and the 'collective level', relative to the overall statistics of their outcomes, which we propose to associate with a notion of 'collective participant'.
Towards a Quantum World Wide Web
We elaborate a quantum model for the meaning associated with corpora of written documents, like the pages forming the World Wide Web.
Context and Interference Effects in the Combinations of Natural Concepts
The mathematical formalism of quantum theory exhibits significant effectiveness when applied to cognitive phenomena that have resisted traditional (set theoretical) modeling.
Testing Quantum Models of Conjunction Fallacy on the World Wide Web
Two major quantum approaches have been put forward: the first assumes that respondents use a two-step sequential reasoning and that the fallacy results from the presence of 'question order effects'; the second assumes that respondents evaluate the cognitive situation as a whole and that the fallacy results from the 'emergence of new meanings', as an 'effect of overextension' in the conceptual conjunction.
Quantum Cognition Beyond Hilbert Space I: Fundamentals
The formalism of quantum theory in Hilbert space has been applied with success to the modeling and explanation of several cognitive phenomena, whereas traditional cognitive approaches were problematical.
Quantum cognition beyond Hilbert space II: Applications
The research on human cognition has recently benefited from the use of the mathematical formalism of quantum theory in Hilbert space.
A New Fundamental Evidence of Non-Classical Structure in the Combination of Natural Concepts
We recently performed cognitive experiments on conjunctions and negations of two concepts with the aim of investigating the combination problem of concepts.
Quantum Structure of Negation and Conjunction in Human Thought
We analyse in this paper the data collected in a set of experiments performed on human subjects on the combination of natural concepts.
Quantum Structure in Cognition and the Foundations of Human Reasoning
Traditional cognitive science rests on a foundation of classical logic and probability theory.
The Quantum Nature of Identity in Human Thought: Bose-Einstein Statistics for Conceptual Indistinguishability
In this paper, we investigate a novel type of concept combination were a number is combined with a noun, e. g., `Eleven Animals.
Toward a Formal Model of the Shifting Relationship between Concepts and Contexts during Associative Thought
The quantum inspired State Context Property (SCOP) theory of concepts is unique amongst theories of concepts in offering a means of incorporating that for each concept in each different context there are an unlimited number of exemplars, or states, of varying degrees of typicality.
Modeling the Role of Context Dependency in the Recognition and Manifestation of Entrepreneurial Opportunity
The role of contextual-fit in the generation and development of ideas is modeled as the collapse of their superposition state into one of the potential states that composes this superposition.
The Quantum Challenge in Concept Theory and Natural Language Processing
The mathematical formalism of quantum theory has been successfully used in human cognition to model decision processes and to deliver representations of human knowledge.
Meaning-focused and Quantum-inspired Information Retrieval
In recent years, quantum-based methods have promisingly integrated the traditional procedures in information retrieval (IR) and natural language processing (NLP).
