Ising models are designed to help perform quantum error correction and calibration.
Nvidia has announced a new family of open-source quantum AI models on World Quantum Day (14 April).
‘Ising’, the “world’s first” open models for building quantum processors, joins a growing list of Nvidia open-source models including ‘Alpamayo’ for autonomous vehicles, ‘Nemotron’ for agentic systems and ‘Cosmos’ for physical AI.
Ising models are designed to help researchers and enterprises perform quantum error correction and calibration.
The family includes Ising Calibration, a vision language model that can interpret and react to measurements from quantum processors, and Ising Decoding, two variants of a 3D convolutional neural network model that can perform real-time decoding for quantum error correction.
