Purpose: • Fast Bayesian Computing Model • Quick Estimation and Comparison of Quantum Mechanical Quantities in QCA Circuits • Directly models the quantum mechanical steady state probabilities Pssis the steady state polarization. E is the total kink energy of neighboring cells. Ωis the Rabi frequency and Δ is the thermal ratio. and are the probabilities of observing the system in each of the two states. P=+1 P=-1 H is the Hamiltonian of a QCA Cell using Hartree approximation. Ek is the kink energy. γis the tunneling energy. fi is the geometric distance factor. is the weighted sum of neighborhood polarizations. where & and Ne(X) = set of all neighboring cells that can effect a cell X. C(X) = Clocking zone of cell X. T(X) = Time taken by wave function to propagate from the inputs or from the nodes nearest to the previous clock zone. Pa(X) = Parent set of cell X. Ch(X) = Non parent neighbors of X. Bayesian Network is a DAG in which: Nodes: Random variables Links: Causal dependencies amongst random variables. Each Node has a Conditional Probability Table (CPT) that quantifies the effect of parents on that node. (a) QCA Majority Gate (b) Bayesian model Steady state density matrix diagonal entries are used with child state assignments (ch*(X)) to determine the CPT of all cells in the Bayesian Network. Joint Probability Distribution function: Minimal factored Joint Probability Distribution function: • How do we model Causality? • Clocks determine the causal order between cells. Within each clock zone causality is determined by the direction of propagation of wave function. • How do we perform ground state calculation? • We choose children states so as to maximize Ω, which would minimize ground state energy over all possible ground states of the cell.

In a QCA cell two electrons occupy diagonally opposite dots in the cell due to mutual repulsion of like charges. Hence a QCA cell can be in any one of the two possible states depending on the polarization of charges in the cell. Electrostatic Interaction between charges in two QCA Cells Is given as: This interaction is determines the kink energy between two cells.
