Detecting entanglement in high-spin quantum systems via a stacking ensemble of machine learning models
Reliable quantification of quantum entanglement in high-spin or many body systems remains a major computational challenge. Extending machine learning techniques to genuinely high dimensional settings is urgently needed. In this study, we investigate ensemble machine learning as a scalable framework for estimating entanglement, quantified by the negativity, in high-spin quantum systems. We construct a stacked ensemble regressor integrating Neural Networks, XGBoost, and Extra Trees. The model is trained on real-coefficient pure states and mixed Werner states for [Formula: see text], and 5, corresponding to the orthogonal ensemble characteristic of time-reversal-symmetric systems. With CatBoost serving as the meta-learner, the ensemble achieves consistently high predictive accuracy. Statistical validation across five independent random seeds confirms negligible run-to-run variance in all reported metrics. Residual analysis reveals a heteroscedastic error structure: prediction fidelity is highest near [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], with peak variance in the intermediate regime ([Formula: see text]-0.7). Empirical scaling laws for training time and memory consumption are derived, showing that the [Formula: see text] growth of the Werner-state feature space poses a scalability ceiling for raw density-matrix representations beyond [Formula: see text]. Moreover, we derive an empirical formula linking the required dataset size to system dimensionality and desired prediction accuracy. Our findings demonstrate that ensemble learning provides a robust and trustworthy tool for characterizing entanglement in high dimensional quantum physics.
