Abstract

The capacity of classical neurocomputers is limited by the number of classical degrees of freedom, which is roughly proportional to the size of the computer. By contrast, a hypothetical quantum neurocomputer can implement an exponentially larger number of the degrees of freedom within the same size. In this paper an attempt is made to reconcile the linear reversible structure of quantum evolution with nonlinear irreversible dynamics for neural nets.
