The paper proposes reverse n‑wise output‑oriented testing for AI/ML and quantum computing systems, a method that builds covering arrays over output equivalence classes, confidence buckets, decision boundaries, fairness partitions, embedding clusters, ranking stability bands, quantum measurement distributions, and error syndrome patterns. It then uses gradient‑free metaheuristic optimization to solve the inverse mapping problem, generating input configurations or quantum circuit parameters that trigger specific behavioral signatures in opaque models. The framework claims to provide explicit coverage guarantees, higher fault detection rates for calibration, boundary, and error syndromes, improved test suite efficiency, and automated partition discovery for MLOps and quantum validation pipelines.

As quantum computing progresses from proof-of-principle demonstrations toward practical utility, a significant impediment is the need to augment algorithmic feasibility with system-level optimization across heterogeneous hardware and software stacks. Quantum resource estimation (QRE) plays a central role in this transition, yet existing approaches remain largely compilation-heavy or domain-knowledge-guided symbolic annotations, and tightly coupled to long-term fault-tolerant assumptions, limiting their topical applicability.
arXiv:2606. 11620v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Approximate tensor-network simulators enable classical simulation of quantum circuits beyond the reach of exact methods, but selecting optimal approximation parameters -- such as bond dimension thresholds -- remains a costly trial-and-error process.

arXiv:2607. 19563v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Quantum error correction can be enhanced by post-selecting out runs that are likely to produce a logical failure, but the most accurate measures for that require costly decoder-level information.

arXiv:2608. 05686v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Quantum error correction protects logical information only when every physical operation remains below the fault-tolerance threshold, a condition that must be maintained continuously rather than only at the initial calibration.

arXiv:2508. 20134v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Programming quantum circuits at the OpenQASM level is essential for achieving hardware-aware optimization and reliable execution on noisy intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) devices, yet it remains challenging due to the need for domain-specific planning, iterative code synthesis, and low-level calibration.
