QUFIG uses a circuit-DAG GNN to rank quantum gates by fault-injection impact under limited fidelity budgets.

QUFIG treats gate-level quantum fault analysis as learning-guided prioritization when fidelity inspection budgets are limited. A graph neural network on the circuit DAG predicts each gate's vulnerability to each injected fault type, measured by impact on circuit fidelity, then ranks gate-fault pairs. On QASMbench and HamLib MaxCut, it recovers high-impact pairs with fewer inspections than random and depth-based heuristics. It cuts gates requiring inspection by 2.9-19.8% while still identifying effective faults.

Key facts
  • Predicts per-gate vulnerability scores for each fault type.
  • Ranks gate-fault pairs under a restricted fidelity budget.
  • Outperforms random and depth heuristics on QASMbench and HamLib.
  • Reduces gates inspected by 2.9-19.8 percent.

The growing scale and accessibility of quantum hardware exposed new reliability and security challenges in the quantum computing workflow, such as the run-time fault injection attacks in cloud-based quantum computing platforms. However, existing works fail to identify vulnerabilities with gate-level precision or adapt to run-time environments.
