retrodiction

• Think Nostradamus.For the general idea of running the clock backward, as the Wired article puts it, there is also the term retrodiction.
• As defined in Wikiepdia, retrodiction is a way to test theories by comparing against past results in situations when comparing against future ones is impractical.
• Contains numerous, relevant problems within the book in addition to end of each chapter problems and answers. algorithm amplifiers antibunching atom atomic atoms axion back-action bacterial based basis beam beat bec bell book breaking brownian bus carlo cas cavity centre chaotic chip circular clock cluster clusters code coherence coherent coherently collapse collisional comment comparison complementarity computer computing conformal conjugation continuous cookbook cooperative correcting correlation correspondence coupling cryogenic cummings cv cyclic damping decoherence demand dephasing design detection detuning diamond diffusion dispenser dissipation driven effective electrodynamics electromagnetism elements emission encoding entangled entanglement equation error exact experimental fabry failure feedback feedthrough fibre field field-effect filtering fluctuations fock fokker fuctions function gas gate general genetic ghz graph gravitons gravity grover hamiltonian haskell induced inequality information injection interference interferometry inversion ion ionization island jcm josephson jumps kerr klyshko ladder lambda laser lattice level line linear linewidth logic loss lossless macromaser markovian maser master matrix matter measurement megamaser mermin mesomaser mesoscopic methods metrology microbial microlaser micromaser microwave mixed mode module monte mot multilevel multimode nature network nonclassical nonlinear nonlocal non-markovian nonpoissonian non-poissonian number nv octave one optical optics optimisation original oven paper perot phase phillips photon photonic plasma poissonian polarized preparation pump pumped pumping pure purification python q qed qip qml quantum qubit qubus quote raman ramsey random reconstruction reply resonance resonator retrodiction review revival rf robustness rotating-wave rotation rubidium rydberg saes sage scalable schrodinger scipy selective semiclassical shors single singular specrum spectrum spontaneous squeezing squiggle stark state states statistics stochastic subpoissonian superconductivity superoperators superpoissonian surface symmetry tavis teleportation theoretical thesis three three-level threshold time-dependent topological trajectories trajectory transitions transmission trap trapping two two-atom two-mode v variable w walks wave waves way wigner CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. —  CiteULike: Everyone's library
• After reviewing the empirical data that motivated the recent interest in networks, the authors discuss the main models and analytical tools, covering random graphs, small-world and scale-free networks, the emerging theory of evolving networks, and the interplay between topology and the network's robustness against failures and attacks. algorithm amplifiers antibunching atom atomic atoms axion back-action bacterial based basis beam beat bec book breaking brownian bus carlo cas cavity centre chaotic chip circular clock cluster clusters code coherence coherent coherently collapse collisional comment comparison complementarity computer computing conformal conjugation continuous cookbook cooperative correcting correlation correspondence coupling cryogenic cummings cv cyclic damping decoherence demand dephasing design detection detuning diamond diffusion dispenser dissipation driven effective elements emission encoding entangled entanglement equation error exact experimental fabry failure feedback feedthrough fibre field field-effect filtering fluctuations fock fokker fuctions function gas gate general genetic ghz graph gravitons gravity grover hamiltonian haskell induced information injection interference interferometry inversion ion ionization island jcm josephson jumps kerr klyshko ladder lambda laser lattice level line linear linewidth logic loss lossless macromaser markovian maser master matrix matter measurement megamaser mermin mesomaser mesoscopic methods metrology microbial microlaser micromaser microwave mixed mode module monte mot multilevel multimode nature network nonclassical nonlinear nonlocal non-markovian nonpoissonian non-poissonian number nv octave one optical optics optimisation original oven paper perot phase phillips photon photonic plasma poissonian polarized preparation pump pumped pumping pure purification python q qed qip qml quantum qubit qubus quote raman ramsey random reconstruction reply resonance resonator retrodiction review revival rf rotating-wave rotation rubidium rydberg saes sage scalable schrodinger scipy selective semiclassical shors single singular specrum spectrum spontaneous squeezing squiggle stark state states statistics stochastic subpoissonian superconductivity superoperators superpoissonian surface symmetry tavis teleportation theoretical thesis three three-level threshold time-dependent topological trajectories trajectory transitions transmission trap trapping two two-atom two-mode v variable w walks waves way wigner CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. —  CiteULike: Everyone's library
