Quantum-JEPA: Quantum Born Priors for Latent-Action JEPA World Models
A single observation can admit several plausible futures, making uncertainty an essential part of world modelling. However, quantum generative models remain underexplored for this task. We introduce Quantum-JEPA, a latent-action JEPA framework that learns distributions of future representations using a conditional quantum Born prior. Circuit measurements generate binary latent actions, which a shared predictor maps to alternative future representations. We train the quantum prior through the quality and diversity of these predictions using a sampled energy objective. Our model learns distinct continuations on constructed multimodal tasks and captures latent-action correlations that suppor...
