Specifically, we consider the formalism of causal hypothesis testing presented in [\\textit{Nat Commun} 10, 1472 (2019)]. We develop a quantum circuit implementation and use it to demonstrate that the error probability introduced in the previous work requires modification. The practical scenario, which follows a theoretical description, is constructed as a scalable quantum gate-based algorithm on IBM Qiskit. We present the circuit construction of the oracle embedding the causal hypothesis and assess the associated gate complexities. Additionally, our experiments on a simulator platform validate the predicted speedup. We discuss applications of this framework for causal inference use cases in bioinformatics and artificial general intelligence.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2209.02016v4","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2209.02016v4.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"quantum-accelerated-causal-tomography-circuit","repo_url":"https://github.com/advanced-research-centre/qacht","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
