Quantum circuit routing is a key step in compiling programs for noisy intermediate-scale quantum processors. Routes that appear efficient by standard overhead metrics can still lose fidelity when they pass through poorly calibrated couplers.

The paper introduces MQSS-Selector, a reinforcement‑learning guided pass selection system for an MLIR compilation pipeline aimed at unified High Performance Computing‑Quantum Computing (HPCQC) infrastructures. It addresses the challenges of Noisy Intermediate‑Scale Quantum (NISQ) devices by integrating device selection, compiler‑pass optimization, and job queue scheduling into a single learning‑based framework. The selector can simultaneously optimize multiple objectives—fidelity, compilation time, and scheduling latency—while adapting to circuit characteristics and device conditions.

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.
The paper introduces a low‑overhead, fidelity‑aware scheduling framework for multi‑QPU quantum computing systems. It employs a Graph Neural Network to predict the expected execution fidelity of a given quantum circuit on each available QPU before compilation. Using these predictions, a tunable scheduler balances execution fidelity against parallelism, achieving near‑optimal fidelity assignments while reducing the computational cost compared to brute‑force compilation on every device.

The paper implements two quantum graph neural network architectures—Simplified Graph Convolution (SGC) and Linear Graph Convolution (LGC)—and evaluates them on benchmark graph datasets for semi‑supervised learning using quantum simulation. It compares their predictive performance and optimization behavior to classical baselines, finding that the quantum models achieve competitive results with fewer parameters. Additionally, the study provides a cost‑gradient analysis to identify trainable tasks and a classical simulability investigation to determine regimes where the circuits remain robust during training.
