Quantumlike Computation and 'Thinking' Based on Classical Oscillations

摘要

Classical systems containing decision-making elements can possess quantumlike properties, most importantly interference of probabilities of different decisions. We demonstrate this theoretically using a set of linear numbered oscillators combined with decision-making and other devices. This algorithmically indeterministic system, although classical, can be described in terms of quantumlike unitary transformations, complex wave functions, and non-commuting operators; the decision-making device plays a role similar to the measuring apparatus in quantum mechanics. The system can be used to construct quantum-like bits and logical gates for quantumlike calculations.
