Marketing to a community of subjects assigned quantum states modulo a proposition perceived in a social value context

摘要

Methods and apparatus for predicting the quantum state, including the dynamics of such quantum state in so far as it represents subjects in a community of subjects to be addressed by marketing tools. In the quantum representation adopted herein the internal states of all subjects are assigned to quantum subject states defined with respect to an underlying proposition about an item that can be instantiated by an object, a subject, an experience, a product or a service. Contextualization of the proposition about the item is identified with a basis (eigen-basis of a spectral decomposition) referred to herein as the social value context. The invention teaches methods to identify one or more populations of subjects amongst the community of subjects, who will respond in a certain way, modulo an underlying proposition about an item of interest. This determination is based on the quantum mechanical probabilities correspondent to the state vectors representing the quantum states of the community subjects.

1. A computer implemented method for determining at least one population of subjects in a community of subjects, modulo an underlying proposition, said method comprising:
a) positing by a creation module said community subjects belonging to said community and sharing a community values space; b) assigning by an assignment module a community subject state |Ck in a community state space (C) associated with said community values space to each of said community subjects; and c) determining said at least one population based on quantum mechanical probability amplitudes α,β of said subject state |Ck of each said subject belonging to said community.
