Quantum Language Model Uses Boltzmann Machine for Self-Attention

Researchers have developed a novel language model, the FC-QBM-LM, which utilizes a fully connected quantum Boltzmann machine (FC-QBM) as its core engine. This model incorporates a self-attention mechanism that performs unitary evolution on semantic quantum states, implicitly handling positional encoding and self-attention computation without discrete matrix operations. Experiments with an 8-qubit FC-QBM-LM trained on Tang poetry demonstrated favorable convergence, strong noise robustness, and preliminary capabilities in associative thinking, content generation, and word ordering.
