DreamQAS: Learning a Decision-Useful World Model for VQE-Efficient Quantum Architecture Search
arXiv:2607. 29491v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reinforcement-learning-based quantum architecture search (RL-QAS) repeatedly optimizes a variational quantum eigensolver (VQE) after extending a circuit, although circuit construction and action legality are deterministic and known.

Learning and interpreting policies for simultaneous entanglement requests in quantum networks
The paper presents a reinforcement‑learning approach to schedule link‑level entanglement in quantum networks, using a Markov Decision Process and double deep Q‑networks with message‑passing neural networks. The resulting policies achieve 100% success rates even when the link activation probability is reduced by up to 71% compared to baseline heuristics, and maintain at least 80% success when task placements are hardware‑restricted. The authors also develop metrics to interpret the learned policy and employ a large language model to generate a heuristic that matches the DQN performance, suggesting a scalable method for extracting interpretable strategies in large quantum networks.

Quantum Adaptive Self-Attention for Quantum Transformer Models
arXiv:2504. 05336v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: A recurring weakness in quantum machine learning (QML) is that reported ``quantum advantages'' are seldom tested against a \emph{capacity-matched} classical control, leaving it unclear whether a gain comes from the quantum substrate or from the architectural change that accompanies it.

QEncodeBench: Can Large Language Models Encode Classical Problems into Verified Quantum Oracles?
QEncodeBench evaluates whether large language models can translate classical constraint problems into verified quantum phase oracles. The benchmark measures the correctness of generated circuits using an adversarial self‑validated verifier that checks full solution‑set equivalence while enforcing resource limits. Results show that models lacking a reasoning mode perform poorly, whereas enabling native reasoning improves accuracy tenfold; semantic errors dominate, and neuro‑symbolic pipelines close most gaps by delegating critical composition to deterministic procedures.

Watching Quantum Models Think: Hilbert-Space Interpretability in Quantum Transformer Blocks
The paper demonstrates that quantum transformer blocks can be intrinsically interpretable by tracking quantum mutual information, entanglement entropy, and state fidelity across layers. Experiments on four synthetic tasks show that learned mutual information aligns with task structure, entanglement is essential for accuracy, and mutual information predicts prediction correctness. These findings are validated on IBM Quantum hardware, illustrating that quantum computation’s physics can provide observable interpretability signals.

QuantumMind: Constraint-Grounded Agentic Reasoning for Speedup Analysis in Quantum Computing
arXiv:2608. 07743v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Identifying a meaningful quantum speedup requires more than matching a classical problem to a familiar quantum primitive: the claim must preserve the task, respect access and output models, expose required promises, and remain within a defensible complexity scope.
