Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

One of the main purposes of this chapter is to explain, albeit in an abstract manner, how quantum physics–like models of the economics-finance contexts would differ from quantum math-like (or simply, quantum-like) models. For this, the chapter begins by considering, what may be called, the “physical” foundations of quantum theory. These include the foundations pertaining to the theoretical, experimental, and interpretational aspects of quantum theory. With reference to the physical foundations, the chapter elaborates on certain expectations from agent-centric economics-finance models to qualify as “quantum physics–analogous”. Then, by briefly reviewing some of the prominent theories of analogical arguments and reasoning from the philosophy of science (for instance, Aristotle’s theory, Hesse’s theory, Gentner’s structure-mapping theory and Bartha’s articulation model), the chapter ends by proposing a strategy for the systematic construction of quantum physics–analogous models of economics and finance.

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.
