Next-Generation Quantum Neural Networks: Enhancing Efficiency, Security, and Privacy

This paper provides an integrated perspective on addressing key challenges in developing reliable and secure Quantum Neural Networks QNNs in the Noisy Intermediate-Scale Quantum NISQ era. In this paper, we present an integrated framework that leverages and combines existing approaches to enhance...

Proof-Of-Social-Capital: Privacy-Preserving Consensus Protocol Replacing Stake for Social Capital

Consensus protocols used today in blockchains often rely on computational power or financial stakes - scarce resources. We propose a novel protocol using social capital - trust and influence from social interactions - as a non-transferable staking mechanism to ensure fairness and decentralization...
