A Cognitive-Aware QML-CRL Framework for Detecting Affinity and Romance-Investment Fraud

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2610.09141v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We present a hybrid quantum-classical framework that detects affinity and romance-investment fraud by modelling the cognitive biases in a manipulative conversation. In our proposed framework, cognitive biases central to this fraud class are carried by dedicated qubits in a structured parameterized quantum circuit, together with a frame qubit makes the encoding sensitive to the temporal order of manipulative reframing, and a narrative qubit that aggregates co-occurrence through a trainable entanglement layer. The circuit parameters are trained jointly with a classical reinforcement-learning agent that decides, turn by turn, whether to flag the conversation, modeled as an optimal stopping problem. We evaluate the model's performance on syntheti
