Since very beginning of quantum mechanics, noncommutativity of operators <math>\widehat{A},\widehat{B} </math> representing observables <math>A,B </math> was considered as the mathematical representation of their incompatibility. In philosophic terms, this situation is treated as impossibility of the realistic description. In cognitive science, this means that there exist mental states such that an individual cannot assign the definite values to both observables (e.g., questions). The mathematical description of QOE with observables represented by noncommutative operators (in the von Neumann’s scheme) in Wang and Busemeyer (2013) and Wang et al. (2014) made impression that this effect implies rejection of mental realism. The result of Ozawa and Khrennikov (2020a) demonstrates that, in spite of experimentally well documented QOE, the mental realism need not be rejected. QOE can be modeled within the realistic picture mathematically given by the joint probability distribution of observables <math>A </math> and <math>B </math>, but with the noncommutative action of quantum instruments updating the mental state: | Since very beginning of quantum mechanics, noncommutativity of operators <math>\widehat{A},\widehat{B} </math> representing observables <math>A,B </math> was considered as the mathematical representation of their incompatibility.

In paper (Asano et al., 2012a), there was developed a quantum-like model describing the gene regulation of glucose/lactose metabolism in Escherichia coli bacterium.11 There are several types of E. coli characterized by the metabolic system. It was demonstrated that the concrete type of E. coli can be described by the well determined linear operators; we find the invariant operator quantities characterizing each type. Such invariant operator quantities can be calculated from the obtained statistical data. So, the quantum-like representation was reconstructed from experimental data. | In paper (Asano et al., 2012a),<ref name=":0">Asano M., Basieva I., Khrennikov A., Ohya M., Tanaka Y., I Yamato quantum-like model for the adaptive dynamics of the genetic regulation of e. coli’s metabolism of glucose/lactose Syst.

In this model, bacterium’s interaction–reaction with glucose/lactose environment is described as sequential action of two quantum instruments, first detection and then activation. As was shown in Asano et al. (2012a), for each concrete type of E. coli bacterium, these quantum instruments can be reconstructed from the experimental data; in Asano et al. (2012a), reconstruction was performed for W3110-type of E. coli bacterium. The classical FTP with observables <math>A=D</math> and <math>B=Q</math> is violated, the interference term, see (2), was calculated (Asano et al., 2012a). | In this model, bacterium’s interaction–reaction with glucose/lactose environment is described as sequential action of two quantum instruments, first detection and then activation.
