arXiv:2607. 05805v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Dilution refrigerators are the enabling infrastructure of superconducting quantum computers, yet their fault diagnosis is still dominated by threshold alarms that report that something is wrong, not what.
arXiv:2608. 02464v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: LLM agents fail mid-episode -- they loop, cascade tool errors, drift off goal, fabricate results, or silently absorb corrupted content -- and the standard remedy, judging every step with a second LLM, costs more than the agent itself.
arXiv:2607. 25145v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We implement an agentic AI workflow built around a large language model (LLM) agent for autonomous experiments with nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers in diamond.
arXiv:2607. 03193v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Calibrating a superconducting transmon chip is a sequential decision problem under noise, drift, and a finite budget: an expert must choose experiments, read ambiguous plots, judge fit quality, and revise stale beliefs as the chip drifts.
The paper introduces Hybrid Quantum Root Cause Analysis (HQ‑RCA), a workflow that applies a hybrid Quantum Graph Neural Network (QGNN) to banking IT operations. HQ‑RCA replaces the classification head of the classical DynEdge GNN with a Variational Quantum Circuit, achieving comparable F1 performance to the strongest classical baseline while simplifying the quantum readout to a single Pauli‑Z expectation. Experiments on 13 k anonymised alarm clusters from a major European bank demonstrate that the quantum component can be executed on NISQ hardware without error mitigation, using a gradient‑free grid scan for optimisation.
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. 14680v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reliability in LLM-based agentic systems is a property of the whole execution (its tool calls, model calls, guardrails, and inter-agent messages), not of the final answer alone, yet evaluating only task outcomes reveals little about how or why a run fails.
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.
BadQubits is an LLM-based framework that statically analyzes OpenQASM 2.0 circuits before execution to detect structurally harmful patterns. The system evaluates four large language model architectures on 1,500 circuits, achieving 92.67% classification accuracy and 96.1% recall for harmful circuits with a fine‑tuned Qwen Coder 2.5 7B model. Comparative experiments show that LLMs retain sequential token structure, outperforming a bag‑of‑gates CNN, and that model decisions correlate with threat‑defining features such as SWAP density and measurement timing.
The paper introduces QEMScore, a metric that compares learned quantum error mitigators to capacity‑matched controls that do not use measurement data. Using simulated circuits with exact ideal answers, the study finds that many mitigators gain little from measurement inputs, with a plain polynomial model often outperforming them. On real hardware data, however, measurement inputs can provide predictive benefits, highlighting that performance depends on representation and protocol specifics.
arXiv:2607. 20377v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Quantum-kernel methods encode a dataset's geometry in a Gram matrix, so learning claims on hardware kernels assume the intended geometry survives execution.
arXiv:2607. 22797v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Trustworthy deployment of AI-based diagnosis in safety-critical mechanical systems hinges on validation: whether a prediction can be checked against physical reality before it is acted upon.
arXiv:2607. 13070v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Safety claims for self-improving agent runtimes are almost always self-graded: a policy file, a guardrail, a promise in a README.
