Quantum Contextuality in Natural Language

Kin Ian Lo

Quantum computing has demonstrated computational advantages over classical computing, yet its applications to natural language processing (NLP) remain in their early stages. Quantum contextuality, a fundamental feature of quantum mechanics, has been identified as a resource for achieving these advantages. Meanwhile, ambiguities in human languages present challenges in building systems capable of understanding and generating natural language. Many of these ambiguities can be addressed by considering the context in which they arise. This thesis investigates the connection between quantum contextuality and ambiguities in natural language. It introduces a framework that models ambiguities in language as a form of measurement, analogous to physical experiments. The findings reveal that contextuality is present in natural language and that its degree is linked to the reasoning capabilities of large language models (LLMs).

Quantum mechanics and statistical physics: Novel frameworks for enhancing natural language processing

Meiyan Wan

This article explores the pioneering application of principles from quantum mechanics and statistical mechanics to the field of natural language processing (NLP). By drawing analogies between physical phenomena such as quantum entanglement, phase transitions, and statistical ensembles, and linguistic concepts like semantic relationships, language use dynamics, and lexical diversity, we offer a novel perspective on language analysis and processing. Quantum linguistic models, leveraging the intricacies of entanglement and quantum probability, provide a framework for understanding complex semantic networks and enhancing computational efficiency through quantum computing. Meanwhile, statistical mechanics inspires models for capturing lexical diversity and understanding the evolution of language patterns, akin to phase transitions in physical systems. This interdisciplinary approach not only deepens our understanding of linguistic phenomena but also introduces advanced mathematical and computational techniques to improve NLP tasks.

Understanding quantum mechanics: a review and synthesis in precise language

Brian Drummond

Abstract This review, of the understanding of quantum mechanics, is broad in scope, and aims to reflect enough of the literature to be representative of the current state of the subject. To enhance clarity, the main findings are presented in the form of a coherent synthesis of the reviewed sources. The review highlights core characteristics of quantum mechanics. One is statistical balance in the collective response of an ensemble of identically prepared systems, to differing measurement types. Another is that states are mathematical terms prescribing probability aspects of future events, relating to an ensemble of systems, in various situations. These characteristics then yield helpful insights on entanglement, measurement, and widely-discussed experiments and analyses. The review concludes by considering how these insights are supported, illustrated and developed by some specific approaches to understanding quantum mechanics. The review uses non-mathematical language precisely (terms defined) and rigorously (consistent meanings), and uses only such language. A theory more descriptive of independent reality than is quantum mechanics may yet be possible. One step in the pursuit of such a theory is to reach greater consensus on how to understand quantum mechanics. This review aims to contribute to achieving that greater consensus, and so to that pursuit.
