Open science, quantum computing, artificial intelligence, biology, and practical research from Eagle River, Alaska.
R&D BioTech Alaska is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit research organization based in Eagle River, Alaska.
We build scientific software, experimental research systems, public learning resources, and practical prototypes. The work crosses fields on purpose. Quantum information, artificial intelligence, biology, chemistry, physics, materials, hardware, and software are often treated as separate areas even when the useful answer sits between them.
Our main goals are straightforward:
Build systems that solve real technical problems.
Publish enough of the work for other people to inspect and challenge it.
Separate measured results from ideas that are still being tested.
Make advanced science usable outside of large companies and institutions.
Support education, community access, and independent research.
Keep the work local, reproducible, and under human control.
The organization is founded and led by Brenton Carter, a quantitative biologist and quantum systems developer.
The largest connected research program at R&D BioTech Alaska is Brain.
Brain grew from QELM, the Quantum-Enhanced Language Model. QELM began as a direct attempt to use quantum channels, trainable circuits, amplitude, phase, sub-bit states, entanglement, and hybrid quantum-classical processing inside a language model.
As the work progressed, the problem became larger than language generation.
A persistent system also needs:
Working, episodic, semantic, and procedural memory.
Continual learning and later consolidation.
Evidence and truth handling.
Model lineage and rollback.
Safety and action boundaries.
Internal coordination.
Distributed temporary computation.
A reliable distinction between an experiment and an accepted improvement.
That larger system became Brain.
Brain then created the need for Qubit State Algebra (QSA).
QSA was built because Brain needed a native quantum-state engine that could run exactly on ordinary CPUs and GPUs, preserve structured states instead of flattening everything into one global statevector, save and restore state, support distributed temporary channels, and remain under direct control of the project.
The relationship is:
QELM
↓
quantum-enhanced language, channels, phase, sub-bit states, training
↓
Brain
↓
memory, learning, evidence, safety, authority, rollback
↓
QSA
↓
native exact quantum-state execution for Brain and the wider system
Physical quantum hardware can be used where appropriate, but it is not required for the architecture to operate. The system is intentionally quantum-classical:
Quantum-state mathematics
phase · amplitude · interference · entanglement · observables
⇅
Classical computation
memory · control · optimization · storage · training · execution
The goal is not to replace classical computing with quantum computing.
The goal is to let each side do the work it is better at.

Public · Active QSA is a from-scratch C++20 runtime for exact, structure-aware quantum-state execution on ordinary computers. It keeps independent parts of a quantum state independent, merges only the components that interact, recovers separability when possible, and uses specialized exact representations when the state has stronger mathematical structure. Current systems include:
|
Public · Active QELM is the original quantum-enhanced language-model framework and the research foundation that led to Brain. The public implementation includes:
QELM is not presented as a replacement for modern production LLMs. It is a research architecture built to test whether quantum-state information can participate directly in language processing. |
|
Private for now · Active Brain is the central cognitive architecture that grew from QELM. It is being built around:
The active repository is private while the source, evaluation material, checkpoints, and release boundaries are prepared. A previous public Brain concept repository remains available for historical context: |
Public · Active Qubit is the distributed temporary-channel side of the architecture. A Qubit node may run on a phone, tablet, computer, or server. It receives a bounded state-only job, performs authorized logical quantum work, returns a result and evidence, then resets or destroys its temporary state. The design intentionally prevents nodes from owning or retaining:
|
These repositories exist and are under active development. They remain private for now while implementation, validation, documentation, and release boundaries are completed.
| Project | Role |
|---|---|
| BrainQ | Current Brain integration, training, memory, evidence, safety, evaluation, adoption, and rollback |
| NueralNet | Subordinate recurrent, harmonic, Tripair, logical-Neuron, and distributed support fabric |
| QTorch | Structure-aware quantum training, differentiation, compilation, and PyTorch interoperability |
| QZip | Exact structural compression for quantum states, tensors, checkpoints, histories, and Brain archives |
| Decoder | Proposal verification, proof-carrying readout, and controlled decoding without execution authority |
Private does not mean inactive.
It means the work is not ready to be represented publicly as a finished release.
We separate measured results from architecture plans and untested hypotheses.
| Measurement | Result |
|---|---|
| Independent differential validation | 14,400 randomized gate operations passed |
| Global-phase-invariant fidelity tolerance | 2 × 10⁻¹⁰ |
| Independent product register | 10,000 qubits in 1.03 MiB |
| Independent Bell pairs | 100 pairs in 25.88 KiB |
| Exact GHZ state | 50 qubits in 5.60 KiB |
| Compressed 16-qubit Grover path | 160,665.80× faster than the dense exact path |
| 20-qubit symmetry fast-forward | 130,750.18× faster than dense |
| Disconnected SWAP across dense 12-qubit components | approximately 745,000× faster |
| 18-qubit, 800-gate stabilizer workload | approximately 1,744× faster |
These are exact, workload-specific measurements against the stated dense or ordinary QSA path. They are not one universal multiplier and do not remove the exponential worst case for arbitrary highly entangled states.
A controlled support experiment used:
An immutable trained parent.
Exact no-op initialization.
The same input channels and residual geometry.
10,945 trainable parameters in each trainable arm.
A parameter-matched conventional control.
Full autoregressive evaluation.
Sealed holdout evaluation.
Protected-parent and native-resource checks.
| Evaluation | Frozen parent | Conventional control | Hybrid QSA |
|---|---|---|---|
| Development quality | 88.46% | 88.46% | 89.23% |
| Sealed holdout quality | 88.46% | 88.46% | 89.23% |
| Holdout instruction compliance | 80.77% | 80.77% | 84.62% |
| Holdout max-token termination | 3.85% | 3.85% | 1.54% |
| Holdout language cross-entropy | 4.50917 | 4.50917 | 4.50836 |
This is a bounded positive result. It does not establish universal quantum advantage or prove that every QSA mechanism improves every AI task.
A later sealed QELM language phase completed 24,576 optimizer steps and produced:
16.52% lower broad cross-entropy
36.43% lower perplexity
+7.4969 percentage points exact-token match
314,442 additional correct development tokens
Improved canonical behavior.
Improved structured safety.
Zero nonfinite events.
Zero forbidden marker collisions.
Native QSA and Tripair were disabled during that phase, so these results demonstrate QELM and Brain language-development progress rather than quantum attribution.
QZip is private for now, but verified exact round-trip results include:
| Workload | QZip | 7-Zip | Result |
|---|---|---|---|
| QSC state family | 342,712 B | 549,659 B | 37.7% smaller than 7-Zip |
| Related checkpoint family | 2,098,392 B | 2,099,735 B | Narrow QZip win |
| Canterbury corpus | 425,441 B | 483,667 B | 58,226 B smaller |
| Silesia six-file pilot | 14,859,541 B | 15,716,478 B | 856,937 B smaller |
Each accepted comparison used integrity testing, extraction, and byte-for-byte verification. Compression speed remains a known weakness, and highly structured experimental fixtures are reported separately from ordinary-file corpus results.
Quantum computing is the largest current software program, but it is not the only work at R&D BioTech Alaska.

Our project descriptions are intentionally specific about what has and has not been established.
**Measured results, implemented architecture, informed inference, and untested hypotheses are kept separate.**
**Exact and approximate methods are labeled separately.**
**Structured-state gains are not generalized to arbitrary states.**
**Physical QPUs, exact classical quantum-state execution, and quantum-inspired methods are not treated as interchangeable.**
**A passing workflow is infrastructure evidence, not automatically a capability gain.**
**AI controls should match active trainable capacity, data, evaluation, and budget wherever possible.**
**New Brain mechanisms begin at exact no-op when the architecture allows it.**
**Accepted checkpoints remain recoverable and protected.**
**Negative, neutral, and failed experiments remain part of the evidence record.**
**Privacy is part of the architecture, especially for distributed nodes.**
**Claims follow the actual test, not the intended outcome.**
