Evidence-Grounded Multimodal Knowledge Graph Construction for Multi-Lecture Educational Reasoning

Lecture videos distribute knowledge across speech, slide text, diagrams, equations, and presentation order, which transcript-only retrieval does not fully preserve. This paper presents an evidence-grounded multimodal pipeline that transcribes lectures, selects semantic anchors, applies optical character recognition (OCR), and uses a vision-language model to extract only concepts and typed relationships supported by transcript, OCR, or visual evidence. Mentions are validated and canonicalized into a provenance-rich knowledge graph. On three neural-network lectures, the pipeline processed 3,118 frames, 756 transcript segments, and 559 anchors. It retained 1,022 concept and 312 relationship mentions, yielding 172 canonical concepts and 282 relationships with 90.38% endpoint coverage. A preliminary three question retrieval test achieved 100% top-1 and top-3 accuracy and 100% mean top-5 recall. The contribution is an auditable construction method rather than a state-of-the-art performance claim.

Few-Shot Cross-Device Transfer for Quantum Noise Modeling on Real Hardware

In the noisy intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) regime, quantum devices contain hardware-specific noise sources which restrict device-invariant error mitigation strategies. We explore transfer learning approaches to apply noise models learned on one quantum device to a different device with the help of a small amount of data. We create a real-hardware dataset from two IBM quantum devices, ibm_fez (source) and ibm_marrakesh (target), comprising 170 noisy and ideal circuit output distributions, with device calibration features added. We train a residual neural network on the source device to map noisy to ideal outcomes. The zero-shot transfer test shows a KL divergence of 1.6706 (up from 0.3014), establishing device specificity. With K = 20 fine-tuning samples, KL drops to 1.1924 (28.6% improvement over zero-shot), recovering 34.9% of the gap between zero-shot and in-domain KL. Ablation studies reveal that the major cause of mismatches across devices is CX gate error, followed by readout error. The results show quantum noise can be learned and fine-tuned with minimal samples, and provide a plausible approach to cross-device quantum error mitigation.
