From quantum cognition to quantum agents: An agent model integrating the superposition state property

Abstract

To model intelligent complex systems engineers use the techniques of distributed artificial intelligence and the agent paradigm increasingly However, the problem of decision making by components of a complex system with local, incomplete, uncertain, exchanged or observed in asynchronous manner is often present in agent models. To provide a solution to this problem, studies on quantum cognition introduce quantum properties such as superposition state and entanglement in the decision process. So how to propose quantum agents models that are capable of implementing both quantum properties of superposition state and entanglement? A case study simulating the Takuzu game illustrates our proposed quantum agent model.

Quantum-Inspired Mathematical Models for Complex Decision Systems

S. Sathiyanbabu, P. Dhanalakshmi, Dr. R. Venugopal +1 more

The increasing complexity of modern decision-making environments has challenged the effectiveness of classical mathematical models. Traditional probabilistic frameworks often struggle to represent uncertainty, ambiguity, contextual dependence, and nonlinear interactions among decision variables. Quantum-inspired mathematical models have emerged as a promising interdisciplinary approach that leverages mathematical principles derived from quantum theory without requiring quantum computing hardware. These models utilize concepts such as superposition, interference, entanglement, and contextuality to represent complex decision processes more accurately. This paper explores the theoretical foundations, mathematical structures, and applications of quantum-inspired decision models in complex systems. The study examines how quantum probability theory provides a more flexible representation of human cognition, organizational decision-making, financial forecasting, and artificial intelligence systems. Furthermore, the paper discusses mathematical formulations, implementation strategies, advantages, challenges, and future research directions. The findings suggest that quantum-inspired models offer significant potential for addressing uncertainty and dynamic interactions in complex decision environments, thereby contributing to the advancement of intelligent decision support systems.

Quantum Cognition Models for Decision-Making Under Uncertainty

Ada Öztürkmen

Classical models of decision-making under uncertainty, grounded in expected utility theory and Bayesian probability, often fail to account for systematic cognitive anomalies such as preference reversals, order effects, ambiguity aversion, and context-dependent choices. Quantum cognition models offer a novel theoretical framework that applies the mathematical principles of quantum probability—such as superposition, interference, and non-commutativity—to cognitive processes without assuming physical quantum mechanisms in the brain. By representing cognitive states as probabilistic superpositions that collapse through decision “measurements,” these models provide parsimonious explanations for violations of classical rationality. This paper examines how quantum cognition frameworks capture contextual influence, belief updating, and interference effects in uncertain decision environments. Drawing on findings from cognitive psychology and behavioral economics, the study highlights the relevance of quantum cognition for applications in economic choice modeling, legal decision analysis, and artificial intelligence. The analysis suggests that quantum probability offers a robust alternative to classical approaches when modeling human decision-making in complex, ambiguous, and context-sensitive situations.

Quantum-Fuzzy Integration for Emotion-Aware in Computational Intelligent Systems

Understanding human decision-making in uncertain and dynamic scenarios is essential for advancing technologies in AI, predictive analytics, and behavioral simulations. Fuzzy logic provides an approach for representing gradual transitions and capturing the nuances of human behaviors, making it a foundation for tackling such challenges. This study explores a hybrid approach integrating fuzzy logic, quantum computing, and machine learning to model complex decision-making scenarios. Using a case study of the Prisoner’s Dilemma, the methodology captures nuanced human behaviors and uncertainties through fuzzy membership degrees while leveraging quantum properties like superposition and entanglement to simulate dynamic agent interactions. The resulting simulations generated a comprehensive dataset, which was subsequently applied in a quantum-based artificial intelligence model, demonstrating the capability of this integrated approach to uncover complex patterns in uncertain systems. This work offers a foundation for advancing computational models in decision support systems and predictive analytics, highlighting the promise of emerging technologies in addressing challenges in multidimensional and interdependent environments.

Quantum Computing: AI Integration for Advanced Robotic Learning and Decision-Making

Vaibhav Chaturvedi, Mohd Junaid, Tarun Yadav +1 more

Over the last 65 years, Artificial Intelligence has successfully transformed robots from simple machines into intelligent autonomous agents. However, as robotics enters high-stakes fields like "Quick Commerce" and complex engineering, classical computing relying on binary bits is hitting a massive "computational ceiling." These traditional systems are simply too slow to process the colossal, high-dimensional data required for instant decision-making. This paper reviews the evolution of AI and identifies the specific hardware bottlenecks limiting modern autonomy. To bridge this gap, we propose "Quantum Power" leveraging qubits, superposition, and entanglement as the essential engine for the next generation of robotics. By synthesizing the interplay between AI and Quantum Computing, this research demonstrates how a hybrid approach can overcome current logistical barriers, moving us toward a future of faster, smarter, and truly symbiotic quantum-powered robots. Despite its promising advantages, the implementation of quantum-AI integration faces several challenges, including limited availability of quantum hardware, noise sensitivity, and the need for hybrid quantum-classical frameworks. The study highlights ongoing research efforts and future directions aimed at overcoming these limitations. Overall, the fusion of quantum computing and AI offers a novel and transformative approach to developing intelligent robotic systems with superior learning and decision-making capabilities.

Cognition in Superposition: Quantum Models in AI, Finance, Defence, Gaming and Collective Behaviour

Ivan S. Maksymov

At first glance, quantum mechanics and behavioural science seem worlds apart -- one rooted in equations and particles, the other in thoughts and choices. Yet, emerging research reveals a profound and unexpected bridge between them. This chapter explores that bridge through quantum models of cognition and decision-making, showing how principles from quantum mechanics can help understand, and even predict, the complexities of human perception, behaviour and societal dynamics. We introduce a computationally accessible framework grounded in quantum theory, designed to model ambiguity, bias and choice in a way that classical logic cannot. Drawing on interdisciplinary sources, we demonstrate how this approach not only enriches our understanding of individual cognition but also extends to AI, video game design, financial behaviour and collective decision-making in society. Through vivid case studies -- from optical illusions in video games to decision biases in economic, defence and political contexts -- we show how quantum models offer new explanatory and predictive power. Thus, this chapter invites readers from all professional backgrounds to reimagine cognition and decision-making, opening new avenues for science, technology and human understanding.
