Quantum kernel methods are leading candidates for a practical quantum advantage in machine learning, but assessing that potential requires two quantities usually reported separately: how well a kernel performs on the task, and how far its geometry departs from the classical kernels available for the same problem. We in...

Anomaly detection on small and unbalanced datasets remains very challenging in machine learning, although this scenario is common in several domains, including healthcare, cybersecurity, finance, and energy. Data augmentation and generative AI may mitigate training-data scarcity, but they often fall short because anoma...

Machine-learned interatomic potentials (MLIPs) excel at in-distribution tasks, accelerating drug and material development, yet they struggle to generalize out-of-distribution. We propose to push the cost-accuracy Pareto frontier by designing observable-agnostic electronic ground-state descriptor models (GSMs) with comp...

Scientific dynamics forecasting is often framed as an architecture choice, although deployment is also determined by observed history, rollout feedback, compute budget, physical objective, and test distribution. We formulate protocol-dependent model selection and introduce ProtocolMatch, a compute-matched, validation-s...
Several published comparisons of variational quantum optimizers time only runs that reach a target loss, or read the verdict at a single target. Either convention could decide whether an optimizer's costlier steps pay off. We measure how much each convention changes verdicts among Adam, simultaneous perturbation stocha...
We present a hybrid quantum-classical framework that detects affinity and romance-investment fraud by modelling the cognitive biases in a manipulative conversation. In our proposed framework, cognitive biases central to this fraud class are carried by dedicated qubits in a structured parameterized quantum circuit, toge...
Quantum libraries are now critical infrastructure for quantum algorithm development, yet their correctness remains difficult to test. Existing testing techniques mainly rely on failure-based or comparison-based oracles, exposing bugs only when executions fail, violate runtime checks, or disagree with another implementa...

Multimodal vision-language systems typically fuse image and text embeddings through classical operators such as concatenation, attention, bilinear pooling, or tensor interactions. We propose Quantum Entangled Multimodal Fusion Networks (QEMFN), a hybrid quantum-classical framework that introduces parameterized entangle...

For reliable large-scale quantum computation, quantum error correction (QEC) is essential to protect logical information distributed across multiple physical qubits. Taking advantage of recent advances in deep learning, neural network-based decoders have emerged as a promising approach to improve the reliability of QEC...

Learning with data in the form of quantum states is of current interest and has led to a variety of problems that boil down to interaction with the available data via quantum measurement and classical post-processing of observed classical outcomes. In quantum measurement PAC learning, one is given a sequence of unknown...
Variational autoencoders are powerful representation learning models that map complex data into low-dimensional latent spaces, enabling the discovery of interpretable and disentangled factors. Such representations can facilitate the interpretation and controllable generation of data describing complex scientific system...

For decades, a fundamental question about the difficulty of computing in high-dimensional spaces has resisted proof. New research resolves this question, removing a major theoretical obstacle to understanding the efficiency of randomized algorithms used across science and computing. The Kannan–Lovász–Simonovits (KLS) conjecture was proposed in 1995. It asks whether, for a broad class of high-dimensional […] The post Solving a 31-year-old grand challenge in mathematics – the KLS conjecture appear…

Zero-knowledge proofs can verify computing results without rerunning workloads or exposing sensitive data. Magnetar helps bring them into the mainstream with support for standard programming languages, major speed gains, and quantum-resistant security. The post Proof-based general-purpose computing with Magnetar appeared first on Microsoft Research.
