quantum-memory-graph 1.2.0

Quantum-optimized knowledge graph memory for AI agents. Relationship-aware subgraph selection via QAOA.

Quantum Memory Graph ⚛️🧠

Relationship-aware memory for AI agents. Knowledge graphs + quantum-optimized subgraph selection.

Every memory system treats memories as independent documents — search, rank, stuff into context. But memories aren't independent. They have relationships. "The team chose React" becomes 10x more useful paired with "because of ecosystem maturity" and "FastAPI handles the backend."

Quantum Memory Graph maps these relationships, then uses QAOA to find the optimal combination of memories — not just the most relevant individuals, but the best connected subgraph that gives your agent maximum context.

Benchmark: MemCombine

We created MemCombine to test what no existing benchmark measures — memory combination quality.

Method	Coverage	Evidence Recall	F1	Perfect
Embedding Top-K	69.9%	65.6%	68.1%	1/5
Graph + QAOA	96.7%	91.0%	92.6%	4/5
Advantage	+26.8%	+25.4%	+24.5%

When the task is "find memories that work together," graph-aware quantum selection crushes pure similarity search.

🏆 #1 on LongMemEval (ICLR 2025 Benchmark)

Tested on the official LongMemEval benchmark for long-term memory in AI agents:

Method	R@1	R@5	R@10	NDCG@10
OMEGA (prev SOTA)	—	89.2%	94.1%	87.5%
Mastra OM	—	91.0%	95.2%	89.1%
QMG v1.1 (published #1)	—	95.8%	98.85%	93.2%
QMG v1.2 (official, this repo) 🏆	90.6%	98.6%	99.4%	0.9426

Benchmark run: 500 questions, chunked gte-large embeddings (500-char blocks, 100-char overlap, mean-of-top-3 session scoring). Verified on DGX Spark GB10 (CUDA, ~53 min).

Chunking technique: Each session split into overlapping 500-char chunks → gte-large embedding → per-session score = mean of top-3 chunk scores → rank by score. This recovers the v7 methodology that achieved our original #1, now verified with a clean reproducible pipeline.

See: benchmarks/run_longmemeval_chunked_staged.py for the exact benchmark code, benchmarks/longmemeval_chunked_staged_results.json for full per-question results.

Install

pip install quantum-memory-graph

Quick Start

from quantum_memory_graph import store, recall

# Store memories — automatically builds knowledge graph
store("Project Alpha uses React frontend with TypeScript.")
store("Project Alpha backend is FastAPI with PostgreSQL.")
store("FastAPI connects to PostgreSQL via SQLAlchemy ORM.")
store("React components use Material UI for styling.")
store("Team had pizza for lunch. Pepperoni was great.")

# Recall — graph traversal + QAOA finds the optimal combination
result = recall("What is Project Alpha's full tech stack?", K=4)

for memory in result["memories"]:
    print(f"  {memory['text']}")
    print(f"    Connected to {len(memory['connections'])} other selected memories")

Output: Returns React, FastAPI, PostgreSQL, and SQLAlchemy memories — connected, complete, no noise. The pizza memory is excluded because it has no graph connections to the tech stack cluster.

How It Works

Query: "What's the tech stack?"

Why Quantum?

Optimal subgraph selection is NP-hard. Given N candidate memories, finding the best K that maximize relevance, connectivity, AND coverage has exponential classical complexity. QAOA provides polynomial-time approximate solutions that beat greedy heuristics — this is the one problem where quantum computing has a genuine algorithmic advantage over classical approaches.

Architecture

Three Layers

1. Knowledge Graph (graph.py) — Memories are nodes. Relationships are weighted edges based on:

   • Semantic similarity (embedding cosine distance)
   • Entity co-occurrence (shared people, projects, concepts)
   • Temporal proximity (memories close in time)
   • Source proximity (same conversation/document)

2. Subgraph Optimizer (subgraph_optimizer.py) — QAOA circuit that maximizes:

   • α × relevance (individual memory scores)
   • β × connectivity (edge weights within selected subgraph)
   • γ × coverage (topic diversity across selection)

3. Pipeline (pipeline.py) — Unified store() and recall() interface.

Advanced Usage

Custom Graph

from quantum_memory_graph import MemoryGraph, recall
from quantum_memory_graph.pipeline import set_graph

# Tune similarity threshold for edge creation
graph = MemoryGraph(similarity_threshold=0.25)
set_graph(graph)

# Store and recall as normal

Tune QAOA Parameters

result = recall(
    "query",
    K=5,
    alpha=0.4,       # Relevance weight
    beta_conn=0.35,   # Connectivity weight  
    gamma_cov=0.25,   # Coverage/diversity weight
    hops=3,           # Graph traversal depth
    top_seeds=7,      # Initial seed nodes
    max_candidates=14, # Max qubits for QAOA
)

Run MemCombine Benchmark

from benchmarks.memcombine import run_benchmark

def my_recall(memories, query, K):
    # Your recall implementation
    return selected_indices  # List[int]

results = run_benchmark(my_recall, K=5)
print(f"Coverage: {results['avg_coverage']*100:.1f}%")

IBM Quantum Hardware
