Research abstract

Physical Optics Corporation (POC) proposes to develop a new computer paradigm which will provide complex, high-dimension decision capabilities. POC's innovative decision system will incorporate a parallel genetic algorithm (GA) which will incorporate many features of human intelligence. This algorithm will be used in conjunction with an evolved neural network using quantum optical computing. This will be the first computer that combines quantum indeterminacy and fuzzy Bayes decision making in a significant manner. POC's decision system will be capable of fast adoption, which will greatly increase its range of applications. The optical processors will be clonable, but like humans, they can evolve differently, depending on what characteristics are needed for individual applications. This ground breaking approach will result in a new type of processor that will far outdistance any current computers in such parameters as speed, power consumption, application flexibility, adaptability, and trainability.
