Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract Unlike other quantum models that explain the Schrödinger’s cat paradox through rigorous mathematical structure, we propose a computational model to describe and explain Schrödinger’s cat paradox based on Darwin’s natural selection. Our proposed algorithmic model discovers laws of nature by only learning observed historical data (sequential measurement of observables) based on maximizing the observer’s expected value. There is no Schrödinger differential equation and quantum probability in our model; our model has an emphasis on machine learning, where the observer builds up his/her experience by being rewarded or punished for each decision he/she makes, and eventually leads to discovering the Born rule. We do not model with the usual wave function, but with quantum decision tree that simulates the observer’s decision process, a quantum decision tree can be constructed from eight basic quantum gates as well as three logic operations; each quantum decision tree includes a set of strategies; every time a decision is made, the observer chooses a strategy from the quantum decision tree’s strategy pool first, and then chooses an action (believe whether the cat is alive or dead)) based on the degree of belief which is evolved by genetic programming.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
