Based on Darwin's natural selection, we developed "machine scientists" to discover the laws of nature by learning from raw data. "Machine scientists" construct physical theories by applying a logic tree (state Decision Tree) and a value tree (observation Function Tree); the logical tree determines the state of the entity, and the value tree determines the absolute value between the two observations of the entity. A logic Tree and a value tree together can reconstruct an entity's trajectory and make predictions about its future outcomes. Our proposed algorithmic model has an emphasis on machine learning - where "machine scientists" builds up its experience by being rewarded or punished for each decision they make - eventually leading to rediscovering Newton's equation (classical physics) and the Born's rule (quantum mechanics).

Forecasting, to estimate future events, is crucial for business and decision-making. This paper proposes QxEAI, a methodology that produces a probabilistic forecast that utilizes a quantum-like evolutionary algorithm based on training a quantum-like logic decision tree and a classical value tree on a small number of related time series. We demonstrate how the application of our quantum-like evolutionary algorithm to forecasting can overcome the challenges faced by classical and other machine learning approaches. By using three real-world datasets (Dow Jones Index, retail sales, gas consumption), we show how our methodology produces accurate forecasts while requiring little to none manual work.
