Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract The authors consider a quantum radar which operates on the quantum illumination principle. The authors’ attention is focused on its function of target detection in a noisy environment. The role of the optical parametric amplifier (OPA) in detection is first examined by the authors, and a dual‐OPA design for more flexible combination of optimised gains is proposed, resulting in a detector substantially improved in its performance from the normally used 1‐OPA design. Then, the use of the entanglement information in the covariance matrix (CM) between the returned signal and idler beams for detection is considered, and a technique to extract such information is proposed. By employing some statistical relationships between positive definite matrices, the authors come up with a new target detection method. Numerical experiments confirm the superior detection performance of the CM detectors compared to that of the OPA detectors.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
