31 October 2025, Taipei, Taiwan – QunaSys, a leading innovator in quantum-chemistry      software with a Japan–Europe footprint, and      Hon Hai Research Institute, the      research arm of Hon Hai Technology Group (Foxconn), today announced the acceptance of their joint research paper “Neural Network Assisted Fermionic Compression Encoding: A Lossy-QSCI Framework for Scalable Quantum Chemistry Simulations” in Physical Review Research. This is the first major research achievement completed following the announcement in 2024 of the collaboration between the two parties to develop advanced fermionic encoding methods. The paper presents a new framework that combines advanced fermionic encoding with neural-network–assisted decoding to enable more efficient and scalable quantum chemistry simulations. Demonstrated on molecular systems, the method achieves chemical accuracy with fewer qubits and reduced computational overhead, opening a practical path toward applications on both near-term and fault-tolerant quantum hardware.In the core design of Lossy-QSCI, the RLE method developed by Hon Hai Research Institute effectively compresses the resources required for VQE calculations and enhances the efficiency of QSCI developed by QunaSys. This research focuses on the challenges of applying quantum computers to chemical simulations, as traditional approaches often require a large number of qubits and massive computational resources, far exceeding the capacity of existing quantum hardware. To address this issue, QunaSys proposed the Quantum Selected Configuration Interaction (QSCI) method, which was later extended by IBM into the Sampling-based Quantum Diagonalization (SQD) framework and successfully demonstrated on IBM’s quantum computer with a 76-qubit simulation. Although the experimental results were remarkable, the quantum advantage of QSCI over traditional computation methods rooted in chemical knowledge remained under scrutiny due to numerical challenges. To overcome this limitation, the joint research team leveraged patented results from Hon Hai Research Institute and introduced a novel “Fermionic Compression Encoding” framework, enhanced with machine-learning–assisted decoding. This approach effectively utilizes established chemical knowledge to compress the information content of molecular systems while maintaining simulation accuracy. In simple terms, it equips quantum computers with a “smart compression tool,” enabling them to perform more efficient and accurate chemical simulations with fewer resources. This breakthrough carries significant potential value for industries. In pharmaceuticals, it could accelerate the design of new drug molecules. In materials science and renewable energy, it can speed up the simulation and discovery of next-generation batteries, catalysts, and advanced materials. For the quantum industry, the framework helps address current hardware limitations, enabling near-term quantum computers to demonstrate more practical applications while laying the foundation for future fault-tolerant quantum systems. This study not only highlights the convergence of AI and quantum science but also provides a concrete and feasible pathway for bringing quantum computing into industrial applications. Looking Ahead QunaSys and Hon Hai Research Institute will continue to strengthen their collaboration by: ●   Identifying practical use cases where quantum algorithms can bring clear benefits to industry. ●    Developing novel quantum algorithms optimized for those use cases. ●     Working toward integration of these algorithms into real-world applications and product lines. Through these efforts, the two organizations aim to ensure that advancements in quantum research translate directly into industrial impact, helping accelerate the broader adoption of quantum technologies.   Physical Review Research, launched in 2019 by the American Physical Society (APS), is dedicated to publishing cutting-edge research across physics and interdisciplinary fields.

28 October 2025, Taipei, Taiwan and Washington, D.C. – Hon Hai Technology Group (“Foxconn”) (TWSE:2317) today announced it is collaborating  with NVIDIA, Stellantis and Uber to scale a collaborative development and deployment of Level 4 (hands-off, eyes-off) autonomous vehicles for robotaxi services on a global scale. Foxconn, the world’s largest electronics manufacturer and solutions provider, is bringing its expertise in high-performance computing, sensor integration, and electronic control systems to the partnership with NVIDIA, Stellantis, and Uber. In this collaboration, each partner contributes a unique strength: Foxconn’s hardware and integration know-how, NVIDIA’s advanced AI computing powered by NVIDIA DRIVE AGX Thor and the DRIVE AV software stack, Stellantis’ vehicle platforms, and Uber’s vast global network – forming a powerful alliance to advance autonomous mobility. These efforts center around developing Level 4-ready vehicles based on NVIDIA’s DRIVE AGX Hyperion 10 architecture, a reference compute and sensor platform that enables safe, scalable, and software-defined autonomous mobility. Foxconn Chairman Young Liu: “Autonomous mobility is a strategic priority within Foxconn’s EV program. The strategic partnerships and strengths across NVIDIA, Stellantis, and Uber accelerate the deployment of Level 4 robotaxi technology, with Foxconn delivering HPC, sensor integration to enable a global rollout.” NVIDIA Founder and CEO Jensen Huang: “Level 4 autonomy isn’t just a milestone for the auto industry – it’s a leap in AI capability. The vehicle becomes a robot – one that sees, perceives, plans, and drives with superhuman precision. By combining Stellantis’ global scale with NVIDIA DRIVE and Foxconn’s system integration, we’re creating a new class of purpose-built robotaxi fleets – making transportation safer, more accessible, and more affordable for everyone.” Stellantis CEO Antonio Filosa: “Autonomous mobility opens the door to new, more affordable transportation choices for customers. We have built AV-Ready Platforms to meet growing demand, and by partnering with leaders in AI, electronics, and mobility services, we aim to create a scalable solution that delivers smarter, safer, and more efficient mobility for everyone.” Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi: “NVIDIA is the backbone of the AI era and is now fully harnessing that innovation to unleash L4 autonomy at enormous scale, with Foxconn and Stellantis among the first to integrate NVIDIA’s technology for deployment on Uber. We are thrilled to work with Foxconn and Stellantis to bring the benefits of autonomous vehicles to millions of riders around the world.” Level 4 robotaxis require a sophisticated technology stack, including powerful computing, smart power management, reliable connectivity, and effective thermal control. They also rely on a wide assortment of sensors – such as LiDAR, radar, and multi-view cameras – working in concert to perceive the environment. In this collaboration, NVIDIA will develop and supply its NVIDIA DRIVE AV solutions built on the DRIVE AGX Hyperion 10 architecture, delivering Level 4 Parking and Level 4 Driving capabilities. Stellantis will design, engineer, and manufacture autonomous vehicles using its LCV platforms and STLA Small AV-Ready platforms, integrating NVIDIA DRIVE AV platform. Foxconn will partner with Stellantis on hardware and systems integration to ensure seamless vehicle architecture. Uber will operate the robotaxi services and expand its fleet with Stellantis-built, NDAS-powered vehicles, advancing autonomous mobility at scale.   About Foxconn Established in 1974 in Taiwan, Hon Hai Technology Group (“Foxconn”) (TWSE:2317) is the world’s largest electronics manufacturer and leading technological solutions provider, ranking 28th among the Fortune Global 500.
