On the one hand, we recognize the real world using usually intuitive perceptions through physical experiments and intuitive perception processing based on binary philosophy.However, physical quantum phenomenon indicates that each photon transfers in the way not agreement with the soul of binary philosophy.That is to say that we cannot use intuitive perception based on binary philosophy to understand the quantum world of subatomic transmitted with the light speed.On the other hand, the simultaneous appearance of two intuitive perceptions: 'being' and 'non-being' at the same time in the human brain, according to Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770-1831), created a counterintuitive perception expressed by rather meta language, 'being-nonbeing' that goes beyond the boundaries of the description of a common language.It is seen as the quantum perception and the quantum cognitive phenomenon originated from activity of the human neural network, used to qualify/quantify the changes of environmental conditions and to increase the potential of the human brain.In addition, Hegel noted that the reality was saturated in the "Ones", we do usually split up and rearrange it.These Hegel's ideas are considered as the quantum philosophy (the 'One' philosophy) and related logic called quantum logic -the human philosophy and logic rather than binary philosophy and two valued logic used in computer.It creates the main foundation of real-time intelligence in the so, called dynamic quantum dimension of the human brain.Today, scientists of artificial intelligence are aware that they consider the real world through the human brain, the virtual world of the physical world, i.e.They explore the real world in a virtual world only.As, the human brain is really a physical world, we explore the real world through another physical world.Information in the human brain is like the subatomic in the physical quantum world, communicates with the speed of light creating a world called the quantum cognitive world.It indicates that we should use the characteristic homology of quantum perception processing and quantum bit, qubit, processing to not only better exploit the power and efficiency of the human brain but also to build a new architecture of the so called the quantum cognitive computer in the future.In this paper, we want to simulate an ability of the human brain by a multimodal approach to comprehensively and more accurately understand how the human brain can quantify the rapid change of environmental conditions in real time.The equality of the quantum perception processing and quantum bit processing enables us to create a new approach of embedded software design and a new platform of IoT technology, new model of machine learning and new field of cognitive robotics, etc., which results in a new model of artificial intelligence named Quantum Intelligence.

Through both an historical and philosophical analysis of the concept of possibility, we show how including both potentiality and actuality as part of the real is both compatible with experience and contributes to solving key problems of fundamental process and emergence. The book is organized into four main sections that incorporate our routes to potentiality: (1) potentiality in modern science [history and philosophy; quantum physics and complexity]; (2) Relational Realism [ontological interpretation of quantum physics; philosophy and logic]; (3) Process Physics [ontological interpretation of relativity theory; physics and philosophy]; (4) on speculative philosophy and physics [limitations and approximations; process philosophy]. We conclude that certain fundamental problems in modern physics require complementary analyses of certain philosophical and metaphysical issues, and that such scholarship reveals intrinsic features and limits of determinism, potentiality and emergence that enable, among others, important progress on the quantum theory of measurement problem and new understandings of emergence.

This paper attempts to build a bridge between the interpretation of quantum theory and the philosophy of mind. In contrast to other such attempts, the bridge which this paper suggests does not consist in extending features of quantum theory to the philosophy of mind. The argument of this paper is that the discussion about a revision of the Cartesian tradition in current philosophy of mind is relevant to the interpretation of quantum theory: taking this discussion into account sharpens up the task for the interpretation of quantum physics as far as the scope of what is known as quantum holism is concerned. In particular, considering this discussion makes out a strong case against the interpretation that considers quantum holism to be universal in the physical realm. I: Introduction There are a number of suggestions for a connection between on the one hand the interpretation of quantum theory and on the other hand the enquiry into the nature of consciousness and the philosophy of mind. Some scientists, notably Penrose (1994), chapters 7‐8, propose that quantum theory is important to brain research. Furthermore, since the advent of quantum theory, the process of quantum state reduction, which is presumed indeterministic, has been employed for a solution to the problem how free will can have physical effects (the most elaborate proposal in this respect is Eccles (1994, chapter 9)). This paper also seeks to build a bridge between the interpretation of quantum theory and the philosophy of mind. However, the bridge which this paper suggests does not consist in extending features of quantum theory to the philosophy of mind. The thesis of this paper is that the discussion about a revision of the Cartesian tradition in today’s philosophy of mind along the lines of direct realism and externalism is pertinent to the interpretation of quantum physics when it comes to the question of the extension of what is known as quantum holism . The scope of quantum theory including the superposition principle and the Schrodinger dynamics is a subject of much debate: Do the features which are peculiar to quantum theory concern only more or less the microphysical realm, i.e., the realm of atoms and their constituents? Or do these features extend to macroscopic systems and common sense objects, such as measuring instruments, trees, and cats, so that they concern the whole physical realm? I show that if one endorses the latter position, one is committed to certain consequences in the philosophy of mind. I relate these consequences to the discussion on Cartesianism and its revision in today’s philosophy of mind. I argue the following: (a) Taking this discussion into
