We propose a theory of quantum (statistical) measurement which is close, in spirit, to Hepp's theory, which is centered on the concepts of decoherence and macroscopic (classical) observables, and apply it to a model of the Stern-Gerlach…
Quantum Gaussian states can be considered as the majority of the practical quantum states used in quantum communications and more generally in quantum information. Here we consider their properties in relation with the geometrically uniform…
We present a quantum Bayesian inference method for intrusion detection, using explicitly constructed quantum circuits and statevector simulation. Prior and conditional probabilities are encoded via unitary gates, and posterior distributions…
Suppose N parties describe the state of a quantum system by N possibly different density operators. These N state assignments represent the beliefs of the parties about the system. We examine conditions for determining whether the N state…

The characterization of physical systems relies on the observable properties which are measured, and how such measurements are performed. Here we analyze two ways of assigning a description to a quantum system assuming that we only have…
