| Summary: | The aim of this book is to introduce a theoretical/conceptual principle (based on
quantum information theory and non-Kolmogorov probability theory) to understand
information processing phenomena in biology as a whole—the information biology
—a new research field, which is based on the application of open quantum systems
(and, more generally, adaptive dynamics [173, 26, 175]) outside of physics as a
powerful tool. Thus this book is about information processing performed by bio
systems. Since quantum information theory generalizes classical information theory
and presents the most general mathematical formalism for the representation of
information flows, we use this formalism. In short, this book is about quantum bio
information. However, it is not about quantum physical processes in bio-systems.
We apply the mathematical formalism of quantum information as an operational
formalism to bio-systems at all scales: from genomes, cells, and proteins to cog
nitive and even social systems.... |
