Understanding Logical-Shift Error Propagation in Quanvolutional Neural Networks by Marzio Vallero, Emanuele Dri, Edoardo Giusto, Bartolomeo Montrucchio, Paolo Rech

“…Unfortunately, the qubit's reliability can be a significant issue for QNNs inference, since its logical state can be altered by both intrinsic noise and by the interaction with natural radiation. In this article, we aim at investigating the propagation of logical-shift errors (i.e., the unexpected modification of the qubit state) in QNNs. …”
