Let $P$ be a Borel probability measure on $\mathbb R^2$ supported by the Cantor dusts generated by a set of $4^u,\ u\geq 1$, contractive similarity mappings satisfying the strong separation condition. For this probability measure, we…

We define and study a new type of quantum oracle, the quantum conditional oracle, which provides oracle access to the conditional probabilities associated with an underlying distribution. Amongst other properties, we (a) obtain speed-ups…

The representation of a given quantity with less information is often referred to as `quantization' and it is an important subject in information theory. In this paper, we have considered absolutely continuous probability measures on unit…

We tackle the problem of conditioning probabilistic programs on distributions of observable variables. Probabilistic programs are usually conditioned on samples from the joint data distribution, which we refer to as deterministic…

A theory of measurement uncertainty is presented, which, since it is based exclusively on the Bayesian approach and on the subjective concept of conditional probability, is applicable in the most general cases. The recent International…

Conditional distributions, as defined by the Markov category framework, are studied in the setting of matrix algebras (quantum systems). Their construction as linear unital maps are obtained via a categorical Bayesian inversion procedure.…

In this paper, first we have defined a uniform distribution on the boundary of a regular hexagon, and then investigated the optimal sets of $n$-means and the $n$th quantization errors for all positive integers $n$. We give an exact formula…

We show that including both the system and the apparatus in the quantum description of the measurement process, and using the concept of conditional probabilities, it is possible to deduce the statistical operator of the system after a…
