Quantum Circuit Data Encoding Using Complex Numbers
Summary
The USPTO published patent application US20260099744A1 titled 'Complex Data Encoding for Quantum Circuits' on April 9, 2026. The application covers methods for encoding data into quantum circuits by chunking, tokenizing, and representing coefficients as complex numbers, allowing multiple values and positional information to be encoded in a single encoding input. Inventors are Brendan Burns Healy and Yasmin Mansy, with CPC classification G06N 10/20.
What changed
The USPTO published patent application US20260099744A1 covering methods for encoding data into quantum circuits. The invention describes chunking and tokenizing data, then encoding tokenized data with coefficients represented as complex numbers. This approach enables multiple values—including original data and relative positions—to be encoded within a single encoding input suitable for quantum circuit processing.
For entities operating in quantum computing or related fields, this patent application establishes intellectual property claims around complex-number-based quantum circuit data encoding. Competitors developing similar quantum encoding methods should evaluate potential freedom-to-operate implications. Patent applicants and technology developers in AI and quantum computing should monitor this and related patent filings when designing proprietary encoding systems.

COMPLEX DATA ENCODING FOR QUANTUM CIRCUITS

Inventors

Abstract
Encoding data for a quantum circuit is disclosed. Data may be chunked and tokenized. The tokenized data is encoded to generate an encoding suitable for input to a quantum circuit. Coefficients of the encoding are represented as complex numbers. This allows multiple values, such as the original data and their relative positions to be encoded in the same encoding. Thus, the output of the encoding engine is an encoding that contains or represents various aspects of the original input.
