Advances in quantum machine learning
Here we discuss advances in the field of quantum machine learning. The
following document offers a hybrid discussion; both reviewing the field as it
is currently, and suggesting directions for further research. We include both
algorithms and experimental implementations in the discussion. The field's
outlook is generally positive, showing significant promise. However, we believe
there are appreciable hurdles to overcome before one can claim that it is a
primary application of quantum computation.Comment: 38 pages, 17 Figure

History and Philosophy of Neural Networks
This chapter conceives the history of neural networks emerging from two millennia of attempts to rationalise and formalise the operation of mind. It begins with a brief review of early classical conceptions of the soul, seating the mind in the heart; then discusses the subsequent Cartesian split of mind and body, before moving to analyse in more depth the twentieth century hegemony identifying mind with brain; the identity that gave birth to the formal abstractions of brain and intelligence we know as ‘neural networks’.
The chapter concludes by analysing this identity - of intelligence and mind with mere abstractions of neural behaviour - by reviewing various philosophical critiques of formal connectionist explanations of ‘human understanding’, ‘mathematical insight’ and ‘consciousness’; critiques which, if correct, in an echo of Aristotelian insight, sug- gest that cognition may be more profitably understood not just as a result of [mere abstractions of] neural firings, but as a consequence of real, embodied neural behaviour, emerging in a brain, seated in a body, embedded in a culture and rooted in our world; the so called 4Es approach to cognitive science: the Embodied, Embedded, Enactive, and Ecological conceptions of mind

Dynamic Data Assimilation
Data assimilation is a process of fusing data with a model for the singular purpose of estimating unknown variables. It can be used, for example, to predict the evolution of the atmosphere at a given point and time. This book examines data assimilation methods including Kalman filtering, artificial intelligence, neural networks, machine learning, and cognitive computing
