'Quantum interaction', Paris, France

A symposium entitled 'Quantum interaction' will take place from 26 to 29 June 2012 in Paris, France.

The field of quantum interaction applies quantum theory to domains ranging from economics and artificial intelligence to human language and political science. These application areas operate at a macroscopic scale and could not be considered quantum in a quantum mechanical sense. However, they may share many key properties with quantum systems.

The event will bring together researchers and students to discuss how quantum interaction interfaces with, or can be applied directly to, solve problems in non-quantum domains. Session topics will include:
- complex systems;
- semantic representation and processing;
- logic and epistemology;
-information processing and retrieval;
-cognition and the brain (memory, cognitive processes, neural networks, consciousness);
- decision theory (political, psychological, cultural, organizational, social, etc.);
-game theory;
- finance, economics, and social structures;
-artificial intelligence (logic, planning, agents and multi-agent systems);
- biological systems.For further information, please visit: http://qi-2012.quantuminteraction.org/home(opens in new window)
