Title: Quantum-Enhanced Bayesian Inference for Bayesian Networks

Jincheng Zhang

Quantum-enhanced Bayesian inference offers the potential to significantly accelerate probabilistic predictions compared to classical Bayesian methods, particularly in complex Bayesian networks. This paper explores the implementation of a novel quantum-enhanced Bayesian inference algorithm, utilizing quantum computation to optimize Bayesian updates and inference. We present a framework for leveraging quantum hardware to enhance the accuracy and efficiency of probabilistic predictions within Bayesian network modeling. The core mechanism focuses on quantum-assisted Bayesian updates, designed to overcome computational bottlenecks inherent in traditional Bayesian inference. The proposed algorithm demonstrates improved accuracy and scalability through a rigorous analysis of its performance on a representative set of Bayesian network scenarios. The investigation delves into the potential advantages and challenges of integrating quantum computing into the Bayesian inference process.

Title: Quantum-Enhanced Bayesian Inference (QEBI)

Jincheng Zhang

Quantum-Enhanced Bayesian Inference (QEBI) presents a novel approach to Bayesian inference, utilizing quantum annealing to dramatically reduce computational complexity. Traditional Bayesian methods often struggle with high-dimensional spaces and complex models, necessitating significant computational resources. QEBI leverages quantum superposition to efficiently explore the solution space, thereby minimizing the number of evaluations required for inference. This paper introduces a framework that employs quantum annealing to optimize the Bayesian inference process, offering a significant leap forward in computational efficiency compared to classical approaches. We demonstrate the efficacy of QEBI through rigorous analysis and preliminary results, illustrating its potential to unlock new possibilities in complex problem-solving.

Bayesian Monotone Metrics for Multiparameter Quantum Estimation

Jianchao Zhang, Koichi Yamagata, Jun Suzuki

Bayesian quantum estimation offers a finite-data framework for quantum sensing and metrology, yet a unified geometric formulation for multiparameter Bayes risk has been lacking. We introduce Bayesian monotone metrics by evaluating Petz monotone metrics on the prior-averaged state, providing a Bayesian extension of the full class of statistically meaningful (CPTP) quantum metrics. This framework yields Bayesian quantities, including quantum posterior-mean operators and a quantum Bayesian dual Fisher-information matrix, and it leads to a systematic family of computable lower bounds on the Bayes risk. The resulting bounds naturally incorporate multiparameter measurement incompatibility and, for every monotone metric in the family, we prove a universal dominance over the corresponding quantum van Trees (Bayesian Cramér--Rao) bound. Moreover, we show that optimizing over all operator monotone functions collapses to a one-parameter subfamily, turning the tightest bound into a tractable optimization with a clear geometric interpretation. In representative examples, the optimized bounds are strictly tighter than the Bayesian SLD and RLD bounds. Our results establish Bayesian monotone metrics as a unifying information-geometric perspective on Bayesian quantum estimation, enabling systematic and computable performance limits in multiparameter settings.
