QuChaTeR: A Hybrid Quantum-Chaotic Temporal Framework for Earthquake Prediction

Emir Kaan Özdemir

Seismic prediction remains challenging due to the highly nonlinear and chaotic dynamics of earthquake signals. While classical deep learning models such as LSTMs and CNNs capture local temporal features, and quantum models offer richer state representations, their integration with chaos-driven mechanisms is underexplored. We introduce QuChaTeR, a hybrid architecture that combines wavelet-based preprocessing, chaotic maps, and variational quantum circuits with recurrent structures to enhance temporal feature extraction. Implemented in PyTorch and PennyLane, QuChaTeR is benchmarked against classical (LSTM, GRU, RNN, 1D-CNN, Reservoir Computing) and quantum-inspired (Quantum LSTM) baselines. On real-world seismic datasets, QuChaTeR consistently converges faster and achieves superior performance across multiple evaluation criteria. Despite promising results, scalability and quantum hardware limitations remain challenges. Overall, this work demonstrates how quantum-chaotic hybridization provides a practical pathway toward more accurate and robust earthquake prediction.

MNIST quantum classification models implementation and benchmarking

Sirawit Butmaratthaya, Niti Buesamae, Unchalisa Taetragool

Quantum machine learning is a new field of study that aims to apply the advantages of quantum computing, such as superposition, which is one of the intriguing properties that could speed up computation, to machine learning. Like classical machine learning models, quantum machine learning models can learn from specific input data and perform specific prediction tasks. However, quantum machine learning models are currently in the form of quantum circuits with parameterizable gates. In this paper, the implementation of a quantum classification model is investigated using the two most well-known quantum machine learning development tools: Cirq with TensorFlow Quantum (TFQ) and Qiskit with PyTorch. The quantum classification circuit is trained to recognize images of handwritten digits using the MNIST dataset. However, because the quantum computer is still in development and is difficult to access and use, quantum simulators are the best alternative for the time being. The performance of the quantum classification model implemented by the two development tools is then compared in this paper experimentally using quantum simulators on two different hardware configurations. In addition, the experimental setups differ in the number of input qubits used to store the image’s classical pixel values. Finally, the wall time and CPU time used to run the training process, as well as classification accuracy, are examined. In terms of accuracy, Qiskit with PyTorch outperforms Cirq with TFQ only in the lower number of qubits but the results are similar in the higher number of qubits. The experiment results in terms of run-time are highly different. From the result, we find that Cirq is noticeably faster than Qiskit in every experiment by at least 90 times.

Implementation Guidelines and Innovations in Quantum LSTM Networks

Abstract The rapid evolution of artificial intelligence has driven interest in Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks for their effectiveness in processing sequential data. However, traditional LSTMs are limited by issues such as the vanishing gradient problem and high computational demands. Quantum computing offers a potential solution to these challenges, promising advancements in computational efficiency through the unique properties of qubits, such as superposition and entanglement. This paper presents a theoretical analysis and an implementation plan for a Quantum LSTM (qLSTM) model, which seeks to integrate quantum computing principles with traditional LSTM networks. While the proposed model aims to address the limitations of classical LSTMs, this study focuses primarily on the theoretical aspects and the implementation framework. The actual architecture and its practical effectiveness in enhancing sequential data processing remain to be developed and demonstrated in future work.
