Efficient classical training of model-free quantum photonic reservoir

Model-independent estimation of the properties of quantum states is a central challenge in quantum technologies, as experimental imperfections, drifts, and imprecise models of the actual quantum dynamics inevitably hinder accurate reconstructions. Here, we introduce a training strategy for photonic quantum extreme learning machines in which both the learning stage and the optimization of the measurement … Continua a leggere

Network Nonlocality with Separable Measurements

Quantum correlations in networks with independent sources have revealed novel forms of nonclassical behavior. While entanglement in the sources is a necessary ingredient, the role played by entanglement in the measurements remains largely unexplored. In particular, all existing demonstrations of full network nonlocality, certifying the nonclassicality of every source in the network, have relied on … Continua a leggere

Quantum Optical Neuron for Image Classification via Multiphoton Interference

The rapid growth of machine learning is increasingly constrained by the energy and bandwidth limits of classical hardware. Optical and quantum technologies offer an alternative route, enabling high-dimensional, parallel information processing directly in the physical layer, particularly suited for imaging tasks. In this context, quantum photonic platforms provide both a natural mechanism for computing inner … Continua a leggere

Experimental randomness certification in a quantum network with independent sources published in Science Advances!

Randomness certification is a foundational and practical aspect of quantum information science, essential for se-curing quantum communication protocols. Traditionally, these protocols have been implemented and validatedwith a single entanglement source, as in the paradigmatic Bell scenario. However, advancing these protocols tosupport more complex configurations involving multiple entanglement sources is key to building robust architec-tures and … Continua a leggere

Just presented the first modular photonic Quantum computer: Qolossus 2.0

On 9 December 2025 Sapienza University of Rome officially presented Qolossus 2.0, thefirst Italian photonic quantum computer. Qolossus 2.0 is based on photons, the quanta of light, rather than superconductingcircuits. This approach allows the system to operate at room temperature and makes itnaturally compatible with quantum communication networks, which also rely on photons totransmit information. … Continua a leggere
