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.

Introduction: The scalability of superconducting quantum processors is fundamentally limited by environmental noise and the exponential measurement overhead required for multi-qubit entanglement verification. Methods: In this work, we introduce a hybrid machine learning (ML) framework utilizing convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to simultaneously characterize decoherence channels and verify multipartite entanglement. The model is trained on synthetic noisy syndrome measurement data augmented with empirical SPAM models and applied to a 5-qubit superconducting device, where the neural network acts as a non-linear entanglement witness. Results: sweeps. Furthermore, it successfully verifies genuine multipartite entanglement with a fidelity prediction of 99.1%, while requiring only 12% of the measurement bases demanded by full quantum state tomography (QST). Discussion: Crucially, our methodology bypasses two distinct challenges: it drastically reduces the measurement complexity inherent in multi-qubit entanglement verification, and it inherently filters out state preparation and measurement (SPAM) errors without requiring noise-amplifying matrix inversions. These numerical results demonstrate that ML-assisted protocols provide a highly resource-efficient pathway for the characterization of noisy intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) devices.
Quantum entanglement is a fundamental resource in quantum information, but its characterization becomes increasingly challenging as the size of multipartite systems grows. This thesis investigates machine learning methods to detect and quantify entanglement in pure multiqubit states using only single qubit Pauli expectation values. Two complementary tasks are considered: the distinction between fully separable and entangled states, with particular attention to weakly entangled states close to the separability boundary, and the regression of normalized multipartite classical squashed entanglement. Several machine learning models are evaluated for detection, while multilayer perceptrons are employed for quantification. The low entanglement regime is investigated through dedicated datasets and targeted data augmentation strategies. The proposed approaches are studied for systems of 5, 10, 15, and 20 qubits and are further evaluated under realistic measurement conditions, including finite shot noise, asymmetric readout errors, calibration drift, and data acquired from real quantum processors. The study assesses the scalability, robustness, and practical limitations of data-driven entanglement characterization based on a linearly scaling set of local observables.
Reliable quantification of quantum entanglement in high-spin or many body systems remains a major computational challenge. Extending machine learning techniques to genuinely high dimensional settings is urgently needed. In this study, we investigate ensemble machine learning as a scalable framework for estimating entanglement, quantified by the negativity, in high-spin quantum systems. We construct a stacked ensemble regressor integrating Neural Networks, XGBoost, and Extra Trees. The model is trained on real-coefficient pure states and mixed Werner states for [Formula: see text], and 5, corresponding to the orthogonal ensemble characteristic of time-reversal-symmetric systems. With CatBoost serving as the meta-learner, the ensemble achieves consistently high predictive accuracy. Statistical validation across five independent random seeds confirms negligible run-to-run variance in all reported metrics. Residual analysis reveals a heteroscedastic error structure: prediction fidelity is highest near [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], with peak variance in the intermediate regime ([Formula: see text]-0.7). Empirical scaling laws for training time and memory consumption are derived, showing that the [Formula: see text] growth of the Werner-state feature space poses a scalability ceiling for raw density-matrix representations beyond [Formula: see text]. Moreover, we derive an empirical formula linking the required dataset size to system dimensionality and desired prediction accuracy. Our findings demonstrate that ensemble learning provides a robust and trustworthy tool for characterizing entanglement in high dimensional quantum physics.
Accurate classification of multipartite entanglement in high-dimensional quantum systems is crucial for advancing quantum communication and information processing. However, conventional methods are resource-intensive, and even many machine-learning-based approaches necessitate large training datasets, creating a significant experimental bottleneck for data acquisition. To address this challenge, we propose a hybrid neural network architecture integrating Convolutional and Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory networks (CNN-BiLSTM). This design leverages CNNs for local feature extraction and BiLSTMs for sequential dependency modeling, enabling robust feature learning from minimal training data. We investigate two fusion paradigms: Architecture 1 (flattening-based) and Architecture 2 (dimensionality-transforming). When trained on only 100 samples, Architecture 2 maintains classification accuracies exceeding 90% for both 3-qubit and 4-qubit systems, demonstrating rapid loss convergence within tens of epochs. Under full-data conditions (400 000 samples), both architectures achieve accuracies above 99.97%. Comparative benchmarks reveal that our CNN-BiLSTM models, especially Architecture 2, consistently outperform standalone CNNs, BiLSTMs, and MLPs in low-data regimes, albeit with increased training time. These results demonstrates that the tailored CNN-BiLSTM fusion significantly alleviates experimental data acquisition burden, offering a practical pathway toward scalable entanglement verification in complex quantum systems.
Entanglement witnesses are essential for certifying entanglement, yet constructing ones that are both noise-robust and economical in measurement settings remains challenging - particularly beyond qubits and for non-stabilizer ("magic") states. We present a machine-learning method that, given a target state and a user-specified number of measurement settings, generates an entanglement witness optimized for noise tolerance in the neighborhood of that state, requiring only local measurements. The approach is fully general, applying to multipartite qubit and qudit systems alike, including non-stabilizer states. For N qudits of dimension d, we train on the fully-separable eigenstates of each qudit's SU(d) generators to find a prototype witness, then tune the witness's bias term via gradient descent to maximize noise tolerance. Adversarial training further strengthens the witnesses, delivering greater noise tolerance with even fewer settings; critically, under this scheme the required training-set size becomes independent of system size. We package the entire pipeline as an automated script that, in every case we tested, produces witnesses surpassing all existing methods in noise tolerance and/or number of measurement settings. We demonstrate the method on Bell, GHZ, W, and hypergraph states, along with a range of qudit states, spanning 2-6 qubits, bipartite qudits up to d=10, and tripartite qutrits. Our witnesses achieve perfect accuracy across both physical experimental test states and large numerical sets of separable mixed states-including 30 million test states for a 3-qubit W-state witness and 10 million for a 4-qubit hypergraph-state witness-and we experimentally confirm the noise tolerance of Bell- and hypergraph state witnesses on both photonic and superconducting platforms, respectively.
Quantum entanglement is a key resource in quantum computing and quantum information processing tasks. However, its quantification remains a major challenge since it cannot be directly extracted from physical observables. To address this issue, we study a few machine-learning based models to estimate the amount of entanglement in two-qubit as well as three-qubit systems. We use measurement outcomes as the input features and entanglement measures as the training labels. Our models predict entanglement without requiring the full state information. This demonstrates the potential of machine learning as an effcient and powerful tool for characterizing quantum entanglement
