• Abstract: The article discusses a key reconciliation protocol for quantum key distribution (QKD) systems based on Tree Parity Machines (TPM). The idea of transforming key material into neural network weights is presented. Two experiments were conducted to study how the number of synchronization iterations and the amount of leaked information depend on the quantum bit error rate (QBER) and the range of neural network weights. The results show a direct relationship between the average number of synchronization iterations and QBER, an increase in iterations when the weight range is expanded, and a reduction in leaked information as the weight range increases. Based on these results, conclusions are drawn regarding the applicability of the protocol and the prospects for further research on neural cryptographic methods in the context of key reconciliation.

  We propose a high-rate scheme for discretely-modulated continuous-variable quantum key distribution (DM CVQKD) using quantum machine learning technologies. A low-complexity quantum k-nearest neighbor (QkNN) is designed for predicting the lossy discretely-modulated coherent states (DMCSs) at Bob's side. Numerical simulation shows that the secret key rate of our proposed scheme is explicitly superior to the existing DM CVQKD protocols.

• Round-robin differential phase-time-shifting protocol for quantum key distribution: theory and experiment [58.03659958248968]
  Quantum key distribution (QKD) allows the establishment of common cryptographic keys among distant parties. Recently, a QKD protocol that circumvents the need for monitoring signal disturbance, has been proposed and demonstrated in initial experiments. We derive the security proofs of the round-robin differential phase-time-shifting protocol in the collective attack scenario. Our results show that the RRDPTS protocol can achieve higher secret key rate in comparison with the RRDPS, in the condition of high quantum bit error rate.
