Outline of Final Research Achievements

Decision making is a vital function in this age of machine learning and artificial intelligence. In this study, we demonstrated that single-photons can be used to make decisions in uncertain, dynamically changing environments. The multi-armed bandit problem was successfully solved using the dual probabilistic and particle attributes of single photons. Furthermore, we showed a category theoretic modeling and analysis of single-photon-based decision making. The category theoretic model reveals the complex interdependencies of subject matter entities in a simplified manner.
