Federated quantum long short-term memory (FedQLSTM)

Mahdi M. Chehimi, Samuel Yen-Chi Chen, Walid Saad +1 more

Abstract Quantum federated learning (QFL) can facilitate collaborative learning across multiple clients using quantum machine learning (QML) models, while preserving data privacy. Although recent advances in QFL span different tasks like classification while leveraging several data types, no prior work has focused on developing a QFL framework that utilizes temporal data to approximate functions useful to analyze the performance of distributed quantum sensing networks. In this paper, a novel QFL framework that is the first to integrate quantum long short-term memory (QLSTM) models with temporal data is proposed. The proposed federated QLSTM (FedQLSTM) framework is exploited for performing the task of function approximation. In this regard, three key use cases are presented: Bessel function approximation, sinusoidal delayed quantum feedback control function approximation, and Struve function approximation. Simulation results confirm that, for all considered use cases, the proposed FedQLSTM framework achieves a faster convergence rate under one local training epoch, minimizing the overall computations, and saving 25–33% of the number of communication rounds needed until convergence compared to an FL framework with classical LSTM models.

Federated Quantum Kernel-Based Long Short-Term Memory for Human Activity Recognition

Yu-Chao Hsu, Jiun-Cheng Jiang, Chun-Hua Lin +5 more

In this work, we introduce the Federated Quantum Kernel-Based Long Short-term Memory (Fed-QK-LSTM) framework, integrating the quantum kernel methods and Long Shortterm Memory into federated learning. Within Fed-QK-LSTM framework, we enhance human activity recognition (HAR) in privacy-sensitive environments and leverage quantum computing for distributed learning systems. The DeepConv-QK-LSTM architecture on each client node employs convolutional layers for efficient local pattern capture, this design enables the use of a shallow QK-LSTM to model long-range relationships within the HAR data. The quantum kernel method enables the model to capture complex non-linear relationships in multivariate time-series data with fewer trainable parameters. Experimental results on RealWorld HAR dataset demonstrate that Fed-QK-LSTM framework achieves competitive accuracy across different client settings and local training rounds. We showcase the potential of Fed-QK-LSTM framework for robust and privacy-preserving human activity recognition in real-world applications, especially in edge computing environments and on scarce quantum devices.

Quantum Federated Learning Framework for Privacy-Preserving Real-Time Consumer Sentiment Analysis

Hong Zhen Yu, Hazirah Bee Binti Yusof Ali, M. Kazem Chamran

HRMARS - This paper introduces a new Quantum Federated Learning (QFL) system that combines quantum-enhanced transformers and federated learning to make it possible to perform real-time consumer sentiment analysis securely, at scale, and efficiently. The hybrid model proposed overcomes three significant issues: it can be accurate when working with non-IID data, it is communication-efficient, and it can protect data privacy with high security provided by quantum cryptographic protocols. Experimental analyses on IMDB, Sentiment140, Amazon, Yelp, and our own proprietary data showed that QFL is always better in precision, recall, F1 score, and convergence rate than traditional FL-BERT and FL-LSTM models. Further, QFL was able to demonstrate substantial cost and privacy leakage savings in communication at a low cost as well as maintain scalability to one thousand clients. The study fills the gap between concepts in quantum computing and federated learning and provides a practical route to privacy-sensitive distributed intelligence on a practical scale applied to e-commerce and social media analytics.
