The amplitude amplification algorithm is used to define quantitatively the ease of a memory task, while the quantum amplitude estimation and the quantum counting algorithms to describe cognitive tasks such as estimating probability or approximate counting.Quantum PhysicsQuantum amplitude amplification algorithm: an explanation of availability biastext
