In this work, we investigate the application of Machine Learning (ML) algorithms to the identification and quantitative characterization of quantum entanglement in polarization-entangled photon pairs. The analysis is based on simulated symmetric, informationally complete, positive operator-valued measure (SIC-POVM) measurement data, where each two-qubit state is represented by a 16-dimensional measurement vector corresponding to experimentally accessible coincidence counts. The generated SIC-POVM measurement data include Poissonian shot noise. Several supervised ML algorithms, including Logistic Regression, k-Nearest Neighbors, Decision Trees, Support Vector Machines, and Random Forests, are applied to the classification of separable and entangled states directly from raw measurement data, without explicit density matrix reconstruction or the use of conventional separability criteria. The study additionally explores clustering methods and nonlinear regression techniques for estimating continuous entanglement measures. The obtained results demonstrate that ML methods can achieve very high classification accuracy, even under extremely limited training conditions. These findings indicate that ML may provide an efficient alternative to conventional quantum-state analysis under simulated Poissonian noise conditions.

Quantum coherence and entanglement are fundamental resources in quantum technologies, yet their efficient estimation for unknown states by employing minimal resources in experimental settings remains challenging, particularly in high-dimensional systems. We present a machine learning approach based on support vector regression (SVR) that directly estimates the coherence measures and the geometric measure of quantum entanglement using minimal experimental resources. Our method requires only the diagonal entries of the density matrix, along with the traces of the squared and cubed density matrices for quantum coherence, and additionally along with the traces of the squared and cubed reduced density matrix for estimating quantum entanglement. These quantities can be obtained through random measurements or a hybrid quantum-classical framework. This approach significantly reduces the resource overhead compared to quantum state tomography while maintaining high accuracy. {Furthermore, the support vector quantile regression (SVQR) with pinball loss is employed to prevent SVR overestimation. This model not only ensures that over 95\% of predictions are conservative lower bounds in most cases, but also maintains this lower-bound reliability for over 93\% of predictions, despite 2\% perturbations in the input features.} The proposed technique provides a practical and scalable tool for characterizing quantum resources across computation, communication, and metrology applications.
This paper explores the use of machine learning techniques for detecting quantum entanglement in two-qubit systems. A dataset of randomly generated quantum states was constructed and labeled using the Positive Partial Transpose (PPT) criterion. Several supervised learning models, including Random Forest and Multi-Layer Perceptron neural networks, were trained to classify quantum states as entangled or separable. The results show that machine learning models can effectively learn patterns from quantum state data, while also highlighting the impact of dataset imbalance on classification performance. This study demonstrates the potential of machine learning as a complementary tool for quantum entanglement detection and provides insights into the challenges and opportunities of integrating artificial intelligence with quantum physics.
k-entanglement, including entanglement relative to full separability and genuinely multipartite entanglement, is a fundamental quantum resource in multipartite quantum systems. Its identification and quantification play essential roles in quantum information processing, quantum simulation, and quantum metrology. However, the practical computation of rigorous k-entanglement measures remains highly challenging due to the need for high-dimensional optimization. In this work, we propose a machine-learning-based surrogate framework for approximating the witness-based k-entanglement measure Ew(k,n). The numerical evaluation of the computationally realized quantity E˜w(k,n)(ρ) is reformulated as a supervised regression problem, where the input is the density matrix ρ and the labels are obtained from finite witness databases. The framework combines multilayer perceptrons (MLPs), convolutional neural networks (CNNs), and light gradient boosting machine (LightGBM) through a stacking ensemble. Numerical experiments are performed for 3- and 4-qubit systems as representative demonstrations of the proposed workflow. The results show that the learned models achieve high predictive accuracy in terms of MAE, MSE, and R2, while providing millisecond-level inference for single-state evaluation. Werner state tests serve as symmetric benchmark checks, and an additional four-qubit noisy circuit-generated state family, obtained from finite-depth circuit preparation followed by local amplitude-damping noise, is used as a structured physical test beyond random density matrices. Compared with the optimization-based evaluation, the trained surrogate model significantly reduces the computational time while maintaining accuracy within the tested system sizes and data distributions. These results show that the proposed framework provides an efficient numerical surrogate for rapid approximation of witness-based k-entanglement measures, while extensions to larger systems and experimental data require further validation.
Abstract Quantum measurements are inherently noisy and data-intensive, posing significant challenges for reliable entanglement detection and the scalability of quantum technologies. While error mitigation techniques exist, they often require a prohibitive number of measurements, making the process resource-intensive. In this work, we demonstrate that by explicitly accounting for measurement errors, high-fidelity entanglement detection can be achieved with significantly less data.We introduce a machine-learning-based approach that delivers noise-resilient entanglement classification even with imperfect measurements. Our method employs support vector machines (SVMs) trained on features from Pauli measurements to construct a robust optimal entanglement witness (ROEW). By optimizing SVM parameters against worst-case errors, our protocol ensures effectiveness under unknown measurement noise. Numerical experiments show that ROEW maintains high classification accuracy even when measurement errors exceed 10\%. Crucially, we demonstrate that training the model using only 20\% of the typical dataset suffices to achieve high accuracy and substantial error reduction. Our proposed ROEW significantly outperforms traditional non-robust models, maintaining superior detection performance under elevated noise. This work bridges machine learning and quantum information science, offering a practical tool for noise-robust quantum characterization and advancing the feasibility of entanglement-based technologies.
Quantum characterization, validation, and verification (QCVV) techniques are used to probe, characterize, diagnose, and detect errors in quantum information processors (QIPs). An important component of any QCVV protocol is a mapping from experimental data to an estimate of a property of a QIP. Machine learning (ML) algorithms can help automate the development of QCVV protocols, creating such maps by learning them from training data. We identify the critical components of "machine-learned" QCVV techniques, and present a rubric for developing them. To demonstrate this approach, we focus on the problem of determining whether noise affecting a single qubit is coherent or stochastic (incoherent) using the data sets originally proposed for gate set tomography. We leverage known ML algorithms to train a classifier distinguishing these two kinds of noise. The accuracy of the classifier depends on how well it can approximate the "natural" geometry of the training data. We find GST data sets generated by a noisy qubit can reliably be separated by linear surfaces, although feature engineering can be necessary. We also show the classifier learned by a support vector machine (SVM) is robust under finite-sample noise.
In this paper, machine learning and artificial neural network models are proposed for quantum noise classification in stochastic quantum dynamics. For this purpose, we train and then validate support vector machine, multi-layer perceptron and recurrent neural network, models with different complexity and accuracy, to solve supervised binary classification problems. By exploiting the quantum random walk formalism, we demonstrate the high efficacy of such tools in classifying noisy quantum dynamics using data sets collected in a single realisation of the quantum system evolution. In addition, we also show that for a successful classification one just needs to measure, in a sequence of discrete time instants, the probabilities that the analysed quantum system is in one of the allowed positions or energy configurations, without any external driving. Thus, neither measurements of quantum coherences nor sequences of control pulses are required. Since in principle the training of the machine learning models can be performed a-priori on synthetic data, our approach is expected to find direct application in a vast number of experimental schemes and also for the noise benchmarking of the already available noisy intermediate-scale quantum devices.
