Readable Twins of Unreadable Models

Krzysztof Pancerz, Piotr Kulicki, Michał Kalisz et al.

Creating responsible artificial intelligence (AI) systems is an important issue in contemporary research and development of works on AI. One of the characteristics of responsible AI systems is their explainability. In the paper, we are interested in explainable deep learning (XDL) systems. On the basis of the creation of digital twins of physical objects, we introduce the idea of creating readable twins (in the form of imprecise information flow models) for unreadable deep learning models. The complete procedure for switching from the deep learning model (DLM) to the imprecise information flow model (IIFM) is presented. The proposed approach is illustrated with an example of a deep learning classification model for image recognition of handwritten digits from the MNIST data set.

Distributed Quantum Vote Based on Quantum Logical Operators, a New Battlefield of the Second Quantum Revolution

Xin Sun, Feifei He, Daowen Qiu et al.

We designed two rules of binary quantum computed vote: Quantum Logical Veto (QLV) and Quantum Logical Nomination (QLN). The conjunction and disjunction from quantum computational logic are used to define QLV and QLN, respectively. Compared to classical vote, quantum computed vote is fairer, more democratic and has stronger expressive power. Since the advantage of quantum computed vote is neither the speed of computing nor the security of communication, we believe it opens a new battlefield in the second quantum revolution. Compared to other rules of quantum computed vote, QLV and QLN have better scalability. Both QLV and QLN can be implemented by the current technology and the difficulty of implementation does not grow with the increase of the number of voters.

Bit Commitment for Lottery and Auction on Quantum Blockchain

Xin Sun, Piotr Kulicki, Mirek Sopek

This paper propose a protocol for lottery and a protocol for auction on quantum Blockchain. Our protocol of lottery satisfies randomness, unpredictability, unforgeability, verifiability, decentralization and unconditional security. Our protocol of auction satisfies bid privacy, posterior privacy, bids' binding, decentralization and unconditional security. Except quantum Block-chain, the main technique involved in both protocols is quantum bit commitment. Since both quantum blockchain and quantum bit commitment can be realized by the current technology, our protocols are practically feasible.

Multi-party Quantum Byzantine Agreement Without Entanglement

Xin Sun, Piotr Kulicki, Mirek Sopek

In this paper we propose a protocol of quantum communication to achieve Byzantine agreement among multiple parties. The striking feature of our proposal in comparison to the existing protocols is that we do not use entanglement to achieve the agreement. There are two stages in our protocol. In the first stage, a list of numbers that satisfies some special properties is distributed to every participant by a group of semi-honest list distributors via quantum secure communication. Then, in the second stage those participants exchange some information to reach agreement.

A Simple Voting Protocol on Quantum Blockchain

Xin Sun, Quanlong Wang, Piotr Kulicki

This paper proposes a simple voting protocol based on quantum blockchain. Besides being simple, our voting protocol is anonymous, binding, non-reusable, verifiable, eligible, fair and self-tallying. Our protocol is also realizable by the current technology.

Quantum-enhanced Logic-based Blockchain I: Quantum Honest-success Byzantine Agreement and Qulogicoin

Xin Sun, Quanlong Wang, Piotr Kulicki et al.

We proposed a framework of quantum-enhanced logic-based blockchain, which improves the efficiency and power of quantum-secured blockchain. The efficiency is improved by using a new quantum honest-success Byzantine agreement protocol to replace the classical Byzantine agreement protocol, while the power is improved by incorporating quantum protection and quantum certificate into the syntax of transactions. Our quantum-secured logic-based blockchain can already be implemented by the current technology. The cryptocurrency created and transferred in our blockchain is called qulogicoin. Incorporating quantum protection and quantum certificates into blockchain makes it possible to use blockchain to overcome the limitations of some quantum cryptographic protocols. As an illustration, we show that a significant shortcoming of cheat-sensitive quantum bit commitment protocols can be overcome with the help of our blockchain and qulogicoin.
