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.

Quantum Gaussian processes for prediction of channel observations

arXiv:2608. 19306v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Given a set of input states, we consider the task of predicting the expectation value of a Pauli observable at the output of an unknown quantum evolution, using only a limited number of measurements.

Entropy Estimation in Multi-Qutrit Systems via Variational and Classical Neural Networks

arXiv:2606. 20504v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We present a systematic study of von Neumann entropy estimation in multi-qutrit quantum systems using two complementary approaches: variational quantum algorithms (VQAs) and classical convolutional neural networks (CNNs), evaluated using an ideal (noise-free) quantum simulator.

Direct/adaptive-mixture phase-gradient learning for neural-network quantum states with complex phase structure

arXiv:2606. 13912v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Neural-network quantum states (NQS) are a leading variational tool for quantum many-body physics, yet their optimization is fragile whenever the ground state carries a non-trivial sign or complex phase structure, a situation generic to gauge fields, broken time-reversal symmetry, and fermionic statistics.
