Quantum Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence
FLAIRS-38 Special Track
Call for Papers
Quantum computing has rapidly evolved from theoretical concepts to hardware capable of supporting hundreds of qubits. As Noisy-Intermediate Scale Quantum (NISQ) devices approach the capability to outperform classical computers, Variational Quantum Algorithms (VQAs) have emerged as key hybrid quantum-classical methods. These algorithms are especially promising for advancing artificial intelligence, enabling the development of quantum-enhanced machine learning models. This special track focuses on exploring VQA-based quantum algorithms to push the boundaries of AI, particularly in the areas of reinforcement learning, multi-agent learning, cooperative systems and generative AI. By leveraging quantum computing, we aim to enhance decision-making and coordination in distributed AI, opening new possibilities for advanced applications in AI and various applications in signal processing, natural language processing, industrial application and scientific discovery.
