Solution Approach 1:

The patent replaces the classical mechanical computing system with a quantum computing system. Specifically, it uses quantum states (qubits) to represent tensor data and applies quantum Fourier transform operations instead of classical FFT algorithms. This substitution leverages quantum superposition and entanglement to achieve exponential speedup in Fourier transform computations, directly resolving the contradiction between reliable computation and processing speed.

Inventive Principle:

If quantum computing systems are used to perform Fourier transforms, then processing speed can be improved through parallel operations, but the system complexity and difficulty of implementation increase

Engineering Contradiction:

Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the quantum Fourier transform process into distinct modular components: (1) quantum state preparation circuits that encode classical tensor data into quantum states, (2) quantum Fourier transform gate sequences that perform the actual transformation, and (3) measurement circuits that extract results. This segmentation makes the complex quantum system more manageable and implementable while preserving the parallel processing speedup.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces intermediary classical computing components that bridge the quantum and classical domains. These include classical pre-processing modules that prepare input data, quantum-classical interface layers that transfer data between domains, and post-processing modules that interpret quantum measurement results. These intermediaries reduce the complexity burden on the quantum system itself while maintaining high processing speed.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

3Productivity

If quantum representations are used to encode multi-dimensional tensor data, then parallel processing of different data portions is enabled, but the encoding and manipulation operations become more complex

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveparallel processing capabilityVSAvoidquantum encoding complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent transitions data from classical dimensional representation to quantum dimensional representation. Classical tensor data with explicit indices is encoded into quantum states where indices become quantum numbers associated with qubit basis states. This dimensional change enables parallel processing because quantum superposition allows multiple index values to coexist simultaneously, and quantum entanglement allows correlations between different tensor dimensions to be represented efficiently.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent changes the fundamental parameters of data representation from classical bits to quantum bits (qubits). This parameter change enables parallel processing through quantum superposition, where a single quantum state can represent multiple classical configurations simultaneously. The complexity of encoding is managed through systematic mapping rules that translate classical tensor indices into quantum basis states.

AI summary

Various embodiments of the present disclosure provide systems and methods for generally generating and transforming physical quantum representations of multi-dimensional tensor data objects. Specifically, various embodiments enable the rapid and efficient generation of a physical quantum representation representing the Fourier transform of a multi-dimensional tensor data object based at least in part on manipulating another physical quantum representation of the multi-dimensional tensor data object itself via quantum manipulation operations. Information may be extracted from the generated physical quantum representation to determine the Fourier transform of the multi-dimensional tensor data object. Accordingly, various embodiments may comprise quantum manipulation operations for a tensor-form quantum Fourier transform (TQFT) for a multi-dimensional tensor data object. Various embodiments for the TQFT are advantageously comprehensive, versatile, and applicable to any quantum representation form for a multi-dimensional tensor data object. The TQFT may be performed in any quantum computing system and/or simulated quantum computing system.
