Investigation of a Bit-Sequence Reconciliation Protocol Based on Neural TPM Networks in Secure Quantum Communications
arXiv:2512.13199v1 Announce Type: cross
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.
