FIRST TASK. “Our task thus boils down to the need of establishing a dictionary between the states of the quantum fields and the states of the quantum neural networks.” https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/prop.201800007?casa_token=GdPRXs_tGLEAAAAA%3Ag-pxPMtkcleTYDUNK3mYGfpEzKRyc2LqQknTgFFB7dkYFDL8rDe2s0f4_0Q0oKjXD4_AEgFPGWolVTQ View in LinkedIn

QUANTUM GRAVITY. “The discovery of a satisfactory quantum theory of gravity has been widely regarded as the Holy Grail of theoretical physics for some forty years. The senses in which our standard ideas of time, and more generally spacetime, might be not fundamental to reality, but instead ‘emergent’ as an approximately valid concept on sufficiently large scales.” https://lnkd.in/dMm_YkR View in LinkedIn

GIVEN ASSUMPTIONS. “Although a fully‐satisfactory quantum description of black holes is still missing, it is reasonably clear that they represent the states in a Hilbert space of quantized fields. We shall not question this statement.” https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/prop.201800007?casa_token=GdPRXs_tGLEAAAAA%3Ag-pxPMtkcleTYDUNK3mYGfpEzKRyc2LqQknTgFFB7dkYFDL8rDe2s0f4_0Q0oKjXD4_AEgFPGWolVTQ View in LinkedIn

FRAGMENT FROM NATURE features an extraordinary article by an extraordinary man. Professor J. Butterfied was Regius Professor of Physic at the University of Cambridge where he led the re-establishment of the School of Clinical Medicine, at the University of Cambridge, and was Master of Downing College, Cambridge. I had a long meeting with this man and was stunned by his extreme gentle humility and his effortless gravitas. https://lnkd.in/dTSsKks View in LinkedIn

INEVITABLE QUESTION. “Let us first ask, what are the black holes from the quantum field theoretic point of view?” https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/prop.201800007?casa_token=GdPRXs_tGLEAAAAA%3Ag-pxPMtkcleTYDUNK3mYGfpEzKRyc2LqQknTgFFB7dkYFDL8rDe2s0f4_0Q0oKjXD4_AEgFPGWolVTQ View in LinkedIn

Believe it or not, this little person came up to me in the woods. I am trying to locate its home. Mythical experience. View in LinkedIn

THIS SAYS IT ALL. “Males latch onto the female with their teeth and become 'sexual parasites,' eventually coalescing with the female until nothing is left of their form but their testes for reproduction. (Angler fish, as reproductive Cheshire cat). https://lnkd.in/dGJVpfH View in LinkedIn

VERY INTERESTING DEDUCTION. “This guideline is telling us that with the black hole analogy, we need to look for a state of high memory storage capacity among the states in which some of the low‐threshold neurons are highly excited, i.e., corresponding quantum oscillators have the high occupation numbers.” https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/prop.201800007?casa_token=GdPRXs_tGLEAAAAA%3Ag-pxPMtkcleTYDUNK3mYGfpEzKRyc2LqQknTgFFB7dkYFDL8rDe2s0f4_0Q0oKjXD4_AEgFPGWolVTQ View in LinkedIn

THE TRAIN OF THOUGHT. “Next, we need to come up with some rough guideline telling us for what type of states we should be looking for in the neural network.” https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/prop.201800007?casa_token=GdPRXs_tGLEAAAAA%3Ag-pxPMtkcleTYDUNK3mYGfpEzKRyc2LqQknTgFFB7dkYFDL8rDe2s0f4_0Q0oKjXD4_AEgFPGWolVTQ View in LinkedIn

HOW A PHYSICIST SEES BIOLOGY. “Thus, in order to imitate gravity‐like connections among the neurons, we shall make the synaptic connection among the two neurons k and r negative (excitatory) and moreover proportional to the product of their threshold energies.” https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/prop.201800007?casa_token=GdPRXs_tGLEAAAAA%3Ag-pxPMtkcleTYDUNK3mYGfpEzKRyc2LqQknTgFFB7dkYFDL8rDe2s0f4_0Q0oKjXD4_AEgFPGWolVTQ View in LinkedIn
