WiMi Unveils Reinforcement Learning Framework for Quantum Encoding Circuits

Beijing – September 19, 2026 -- WiMi Hologram Cloud Inc. (NASDAQ: WiMi) has developed a reinforcement learning-based framework to automate the design of quantum encoding circuits, aiming to cut the resource costs and inefficiencies that have limited quantum machine learning (QML) model performance.

WiMi replaces manual circuit design with automated search architecture

The new scheme uses reinforcement learning to generate task-specific encoding circuit architectures automatically, moving away from the heuristic, manually designed approaches that have dominated QML development. WiMi states the framework targets three persistent industry problems: poor task adaptability, low search efficiency, and insufficient handling of multiple design objectives simultaneously.
