Quantum Neuromorphic Architectures

Scope

Design patterns for combining quantum computing paradigms with brain-inspired/neuromorphic computation. Covers QHDC, quantum brain models, photonic quantum memristors, and hybrid quantum-classical neuromorphic systems.

Pattern 1: Quantum Hyperdimensional Computing (QHDC)

Map Hyperdimensional Computing (HDC) operations to quantum-native implementations:

HDC Operation	Quantum Implementation	Tool
Hypervector to state	n-qubit state for 2^N dimensions	State preparation
Bundling	Superposition	LCU + OAA
Binding	Association	Quantum phase oracles
Permutation	Position shift	QFT
Similarity	Inner product	Hadamard Test

When to use: Associative memory, pattern classification, analogical reasoning on quantum hardware. Validated on IBM Heron r3 (156-qubit). Advantage: O(1) similarity measurement, exponential compression.

arXiv reference: 2511.12664 (Cumbo et al.)

Pattern 2: Three-Layer Quantum Brain Model

Architecture for analyzing quantum coherence in biological systems:

Layer 1: Nuclear Spin Memory (31P)     ms-scale coherence storage
Layer 2: Electron Spin Interface       ns-scale coherence bridge
Layer 3: Classical Electrochemistry    Neural readout

CQEC (Covariant Quantum Error Correction) protocol requirements:

• Minimum T2 threshold: above 26ms for CQEC to maintain coherence above 0.69
• CRY (cryptochrome, T2=52ms): CQEC coherence = 0.83 (times 6.9 improvement)
• MAO-A (T2=3.2ms): CQEC fails, coherence collapses to 0.012
• Validation window: 200ms Schultze-Kraft veto

LMG Hamiltonian with Synaptic Feedback:

• Encodes neuronal populations as fully-connected qubits
• Feedback reshapes phase diagram: expands paramagnetic phase
• Diagnosis: Husimi distribution plus Wehrl entropy
• Homeostatic control: synaptic efficacy = f(population activity)

arXiv references: 2604.08587 (Wakaura), 2603.03345 (Romera/Torres), 2602.16003 (Torres/Romera)

Pattern 3: Photonic Quantum Memristors

Coupled photonic quantum memristors with crossed feedback on integrated photonic circuits:

• Non-Markovian input-output dynamics
• Self-intersecting hysteresis loops yielding bistability
• Scalable building blocks for quantum reservoir computing

arXiv reference: 2602.14736 (Baldazzi et al.)

Pitfalls

1. Layer-protein tradeoff: No single radical-pair protein optimizes both Layer 1 and Layer 2 simultaneously. CRY better for nuclear memory (longer T2), MAO-A better for electron interface (longer T2e).
2. State preparation remains unsolved: How to initialize quantum states in biological contexts is still open.
3. Entanglement distribution: Mechanism for maintaining multi-protein entanglement unresolved.
4. QHDC classical adaptation trap: Many QML approaches adapt classical frameworks. QHDC is quantum-native by design. Do not force HDC into classical quantum simulation patterns.
