IonSense-QKG: A Quantum-Readiness Metadata Framework for Lithium-Ion Battery Dataset Discovery

Sakthi Prabhu Gunasekar, Prasanna Kumar Rangarajan

Public lithium-ion battery datasets are increasingly used for state-of-health estimation, remaining-useful-life prediction, anomaly detection, electrochemical diagnostics, second-life analytics, and battery safety research. However, these datasets vary substantially in chemistry, modality, scale, label quality, sequence structure, access status, and preprocessing complexity. These differences directly affect whether a dataset is feasible for near-term hybrid quantum-classical machine-learning workflows. This paper presents IonSense-QKG, a quantum-readiness metadata framework for lithium-ion battery dataset discovery. Starting from the EV-Battery-IonSense index, the proposed framework enriches public battery dataset records with quantum-relevant metadata, including task type, sensing modality, chemistry, label availability, sequence type, preprocessing requirements, candidate quantum encodings, estimated qubit range, and NISQ feasibility. A transparent Quantum Readiness Score is introduced to rank datasets as candidate resources for future hybrid quantum-classical battery benchmarks. The score is intended as a dataset-selection heuristic, not as evidence of quantum advantage. The framework demonstrates query-based discovery over enriched metadata to identify datasets suitable for compact quantum feature maps, quantum time-series workflows, limited-label anomaly detection, and future battery-health benchmarking. The released artifact includes metadata tables, scoring scripts, robustness checks, link-checking utilities, and SQL-style query examples. IonSense-QKG positions dataset selection as a data-management problem and provides a reproducible foundation for data-centric quantum battery analytics.
