After the highly successful previous meetings (QI 2007 in Stanford, QI 2008 in Oxford, QI 2009 in Saarbru¨cken, QI 2010 in Washington DC), the Fifth In- ternationalQuantumInteractionSymposium(QI2011)tookplaceinAberdeen, UK from 26 to 29 June 2011. This symposium brought together researchers in- terested in how QT interfaces with or solvesproblems in non-quantumdomains moreefficiently.ItalsolookedathowQTcanaddresspreviouslyunsolvedprob- lems in other fields. QI 2011received30 submissions.All contributions were reviewedby at least threereviewers.Thepaperswererankedaccordingtotheirrelevance,originality, quality, presentation, and citations in order to decide which submissions were to be accepted as full papers, short papers, or posters. In total 11 full papers, 8 short papers and 6 posters were accepted for presentation at the conference. These post-conference proceedings include the 23 accepted papers/posters that were presented and revised based on the reviewers’ comments and the dis- cussions at the symposium. They have been categorized into six main themes (sessions): language;semantic spaces; economics, politics and decision; psychol- ogy and cognition; information representation and retrieval; and computation and information. WewouldliketothanktheSteeringCommittee,ourinvitedspeakerChristo- pher Fuchs, the tutorial instructors, all the authors who submitted their work for consideration,all the participants, and the student helpers for their support andcontribution;andthemembersoftheProgramCommitteefortheireffortin providingusefulandtimelyreviews.OurgratefulthanksarealsoduetoIbrahim Adeyanju (local organization), Alvaro Francisco Huertas Rosero (graphical de- sign), David Young (website design and maintenance), Steven Begg (finance), Virginia Dawood (administration), and many other people who offered great help. We also would like to acknowledgethe financial support from the Scottish Informatics and Computer Science Alliance (SICSA). Finally, we hope everybody had a fruitful and enjoyable time in Aberdeen.

Fuchs Perimeter Institutefor Theoretical Physics Waterloo, Ontario Canada [email protected] Abstract. With the help of a certain mathematical structure in quan- tum information theory, there is a particularly elegant way to rewrite the quantum mechanical Born rule as an expression purely in terms of probabilities. In this way, one can in principle get rid of complex Hilbert spaces and operators as fundamental entities in the theory. In the place of a quantum state, the new expression uses a probability distribution, and in theplace of measurement operators, it usesconditional distributions. The Born rule thus becomes a story of probabilities going in and probabilities coming out. Going a step further: In the Bayesian spirit of givingequalstatustoallprobabilities–inthiscase,theonesonboththe rightandleftsidesoftheBorn-ruleequation–itindicatesthattheBorn rule should be viewed as a normative condition on probabilities above and beyond Dutch-bookcoherence. In opposition to Dutch book coherence, this new normative rule is empirical, rather than purely logical in its origin (and by way of that mustencodesomeofthephysicalcontentofquantumtheory),butthere maybeothernon-quantumsituationsthatwarrantthesameorasimilar addition to Dutch-book coherence: I make no judgment one way or the other,butIhopethatthiswayofrewritingquantumtheorymayprovide a suggestive new language for some of the non-quantum topics of this meeting.

High-performance computational resources and distributed systemsarecrucialforthesuccessofreal-worldlanguagetechnologyap- plications. The novelparadigm of general-purpose computingon graph- ics processors (GPGPU) offers a feasible and economical alternative: it has already become a common phenomenon in scientific computation, with many algorithms adapted to the new paradigm. However, appli- cations in language technology do not readily adapt to this approach. Recent advances show the applicability of quantum metaphors in lan- guage representation, and many algorithms in quantummechanics have alreadybeenadaptedtoGPGPUcomputing.SQUALARaimstomatch quantum algorithms with heterogeneous computing to develop new for- malismsofinformationrepresentationfornaturallanguageprocessingin quantumenvironments. 1 Introduction Quantum mechanics is a very successful scientific theory for making predictions about systems with inherent ambiguity in them. That natural language bears similarities with such a system is at least plausible. Recent advances in theory and experimentation to apply quantum mechanics to non-quantum domains in- clude the use of quantum algorithms to address, or to more efficiently solve, problems in such domains (including contrasts between classical vs. quantum methods), such as applications of artificial intelligence, information retrieval, and language modelling. Thequantummetaphorpromisesimprovedmethodologiestocapturethesub- tleties andambiguitiesofhumanlanguage,resultinginoptimisedalgorithmsfor text processing. The purpose of SQUALAR is to investigate methods borrowed from the field of quantum mechanics in a wide range of large-scale language technology applications by seeking a match between quantum algorithms and heterogeneous computing. To this end, a scalable environment is a must.
