#PaulDirac formulated relativistic equation for #electron in 1928.
Dirac eq. admits solutions with negative energies and "Dirac sea" was postulated -it is explained very well in George Gamow's "Biography of #Physics" for example-
Anderson discovered #positron in 1932 in cosmic rays.
Antimatter are not particles of negative "mass in rest" because that -for the moment- does not exist
#Positron and electron have same mass at rest 511 keV each
#QuantumElectrodynamics was developed around late 1940s

This is old stuff being reinvented with new jargon or "newspeak". Ive been in image processing related technologies for over 40 years and the answer to your first para is yes. Look at the technologies behind GIS and satellite mapping, radar mapping and urban planning. Segmentation and "disentanglement"( hey this aint QED! ) are related leading to independence of entities and attributes.
