AI is key for turning today\u2019s quantum processors into large-scale, reliable computers. Open models empower developers to build high-performance AI while maintaining total control over their data and infrastructure.<\/p>\n<p>Named after a landmark mathematical model that dramatically simplified the understanding of complex physical systems, the NVIDIA Ising family provides high-performance, scalable AI tools for quantum error correction and calibration \u2014 two of the most critical challenges in building hybrid-quantum classical systems.<\/p>\n<p>Ising models run the world\u2019s best quantum processor calibration and enable researchers to tackle much larger, more complex problems with quantum computers by delivering up to 2.5x faster performance and 3x higher accuracy for the decoding process needed for quantum error correction.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAI is essential to making quantum computing practical,\u201d said Jensen Huang, founder and CEO of NVIDIA. \u201cWith Ising, AI becomes the control plane \u2014 the operating system of quantum machines \u2014 transforming fragile qubits to scalable and reliable quantum-GPU systems.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The quantum computing market is expected to surpass $11 billion in 2030, according to analyst firm Resonance. This growth trajectory is highly dependent on continued progress in addressing critical engineering challenges, such as quantum error correction and scalability.<\/p>\n<p>NVIDIA Ising includes state-of-the-art customizable models, tools and data that accelerate quantum processors:<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n\tIsing Calibration: A vision language model that can rapidly interpret and react to measurements from quantum processors. This enables AI agents to automate continuous calibration, reducing the time needed from days to hours.&#13;<br \/>\n\tIsing Decoding: Two variants of a 3D convolutional neural network model \u2014 optimized for either speed or accuracy \u2014 to perform real-time decoding for quantum error correction. Ising Decoding models are up to 2.5x faster and 3x more accurate than pyMatching, the current open source industry standard.&#13;<\/p>\n<p>Ecosystem Adoption<br \/>&#13;<br \/>\nLeading enterprises, academic institutions and research labs are adopting Ising for quantum computing development.<\/p>\n<p>Ising Calibration is already in use by Atom Computing, Academia Sinica, <a href=\"https:\/\/eeroq.com\/nvidia-ising\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"EeroQ\">EeroQ<\/a>, Conductor Quantum, <a href=\"https:\/\/quantum.northwestern.edu\/news-and-stories\/2026\/northwestern-and-fermilab-quantum-data-helps-build-a-new-ai-benchmark-for-quantum-calibration-with-nvidia-ising-open-models.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory\">Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory<\/a>, Harvard John A.
