Towards a quantum synapse for quantum sensing

As a step in the architectural design of a quantum processing or sensing system with control and signaling, an attempt is made at putting in parallel functional properties of the random flows between neurons through electrical synapses, and quantum particle flows inside a quantum processing system mimicking biological processes. Based on a simplified dynamic electrical synapse model, a quantum synapse circuit design is proposed. This is extended to the case of bidirectional flows through a synapse, highlighting the possible role of quantum synapse circuits as highly parallel controlled interfaces crucial in sensing and sensor fusion systems. A short status of the quantum simulation is provided.

Abstract

As a step in the architectural design of a quantum processing or sensing system with control and signaling, an attempt is made at putting in parallel functional properties of the random flows between neurons through electrical synapses, and quantum particle flows inside a quantum processing system mimicking biological processes. Based on a simplified dynamic electrical synapse model, a quantum synapse circuit design is proposed. This is extended to the case of bidirectional flows through a synapse, highlighting the possible role of quantum synapse circuits as highly parallel controlled interfaces crucial in sensing and sensor fusion systems. A short status of the quantum simulation is provided.
