Keynote talk:
Physics-Informed Neural Networks for Fluid and Electromagnetic Phenomena: Explainability via Approximate Inverse Model Explanations (AIME)
Abstract:
In this presentation, we explore the application of Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs) to model two representative physical systems: vortex shedding in the Kármán vortex street and electromagnetic wave propagation. These simulations integrate governing equations directly into the learning process, enabling physically consistent representations without labeled data. To enhance interpretability and foster trust in such black-box neural models, we apply Approximate Inverse Model Explanations (AIME)—a post-hoc, model-agnostic XAI technique that provides both local and global feature importance by constructing approximate inverse operators. Furthermore, we utilize AIME’s representative instance similarity distribution plots to visually assess model behavior and dataset complexity. Our findings demonstrate that combining PINNs with AIME yields not only accurate and physically plausible simulations but also transparent insights into model reasoning, paving the way toward reliable AI-based modeling in computational physics.
Talk 4:
Dr. Niyaz Beysengulov
Director of Quantum Engineering, EeroQ Quantum Hardware
Biography:
Niyaz Beysengulov earned a Ph.D. in Physics from Kazan Federal University (Kazan, Russia) through a joint program with RIKEN (Wako, Japan) in 2017. During this time, he conducted research in the Low Temperature Physics Laboratory at RIKEN under the supervision of Dr. Kimitoshi Kono, focusing on two-dimensional electrons on the surface of liquid helium in microchannel devices. This work led to the first demonstration of precise control over the number of electron rows formed in microchannels and the observation of an order–disorder phase transition in this low-dimensional electron system. From 2018, he was a postdoctoral researcher in the Laboratory for Hybrid Quantum Systems at Michigan State University, working with Prof. Johannes Pollanen. There, his research involved the development of nano- and microfabricated devices—including superconducting single-electron transistors—as sensitive electrometers for detecting small numbers of electrons on helium. Since 2023, Niyaz Beysengulov has served as Director of Quantum Engineering at EeroQ, where the scientific focus is on developing a novel qubit platform based on electrons floating on the surface of superfluid helium for quantum information science applications.
Keynote talk:
Toward Scalable Quantum Processing with Electrons on Superfluid Helium
Abstract:
Electrons on helium are naturally identical, highly mobile, with exceptionally long spin coherence, and have device sizes which seamlessly integrate with CMOS technology for high-density quantum gates. These features provide a unique foundation for developing a scalable quantum processor comprising millions of qubits integrated on a single chip. This talk outlines the development of experimental infrastructure for probing surface-state electrons on superfluid helium across a temperature range spanning from the millikelvin regime up to 1 K. We demonstrate the positional control and measurement of single electrons, as well as the functionality of a large CCD array that allows for the addressability and measurement of many small electron packets. To detect electron packets ranging in size down to single electrons, we leverage a superconducting resonator embedded below the helium surface and measure the dispersive shift of the coupled electron-resonator system. The CCD was fabricated using a standard CMOS foundry process and we show its ability to both shuttle and measure thousands of electron packets.
