At eBRAIN, we focus on the algorithmic development of quantum computing, including quantum machine learning, hybrid quantum–classical models, and quantum optimization techniques. Our work addresses key challenges such as scalability, trainability, and robustness to adversarial attacks. We also explore privacy-preserving approaches like quantum federated learning, quantum reinforcement learning, and the use of large language models to support quantum programming. In addition, we work on the design and evaluation of quantum neural architectures through quantum architecture search. Our research is applied across various domains, including finance, physics, and cybersecurity.
