Quantum Bayesianism is a "subjective Bayesian account of quantum probability."[1]
an interpretation of quantum mechanics in the early stages of development. The dominant version has evolved from the work of Carlton Caves, Christopher Fuchs and Rüdiger Schack.[2][3] It attempts to simplify quantum mechanics into axiomatize and to provide a more complete understanding. Quantum Bayesianism draws from the fields of quantum information and Bayesian probability. It uses the idea of anti-realism, from philosophy of science, to explain the Interpretations of quantum mechanics, like the superposition of wavefunctions, non-locality and entanglement.[4]
