Machine Learning Assisted Quantum Network Optimization for Future Internet Architectures

Abstract

The integration of quantum networking with future Internet architectures introduces new challenges in resource optimization, routing, and network reliability. Traditional optimization techniques are often insufficient to handle the dynamic and probabilistic nature of quantum networks. This paper proposes a machine learning-assisted framework for quantum network optimization, where data-driven models are used to enhance decision-making in routing, resource allocation, and entanglement management. The approach combines classical learning algorithms with quantum network control mechanisms to improve adaptability and performance under varying network conditions. Experimental evaluation demonstrates improved efficiency in network utilization, reduced latency, and enhanced robustness compared to conventional methods. The results highlight the potential of machine learning-assisted optimization as a key enabler for scalable and intelligent quantum Internet infrastructures.
