Dynamic Heuristic Neuromorphic Solver for the Edge User Allocation Problem with Bayesian Confidence Propagation Neural Network

We propose a neuromorphic solver for the NP-hard Edge User Allocation problem using an attractor network with Winner-Takes-All (WTA) mechanism implemented with the Bayesian Confidence Propagation Neural Network (BCPNN) framework. Unlike previous energy-based attractor networks, our solver uses dynamic heuristic biasing to guide allocations in real time and introduces a "no allocation" state to each WTA motif, achieving near-optimal performance with an empirically upper-bounded number of time steps. The approach is compatible with neuromorphic architectures and may offer improvements in energy efficiency.

Support Vector Machines on Noisy Intermediate Scale Quantum Computers

Support vector machine algorithms are considered essential for the implementation of automation in a radio access network. Specifically, they are critical in the prediction of the quality of user experience for video streaming based on device and network-level metrics. Quantum SVM is the quantum analogue of the classical SVM algorithm, which utilizes the properties of quantum computers to speed up the algorithm exponentially. In this work, we derive an optimized preprocessing unit for a quantum SVM that allows classifying any two-dimensional datasets that are linearly separable. We further provide a result readout method of the kernel matrix generation circuit to avoid quantum tomography that, in turn, reduces the quantum circuit depth. We also derive a quantum SVM system based on an optimized HHL quantum circuit with reduced circuit depth.
