Potential and limitations of random Fourier features for dequantizing quantum machine learning

no code implementations20 Sep 2023 Ryan Sweke, Erik Recio, Sofiene Jerbi, Elies Gil-Fuster, Bryce Fuller, Jens Eisert, Johannes Jakob Meyer

We build on these insights to make concrete suggestions for PQC architecture design, and to identify structures which are necessary for a regression problem to admit a potential quantum advantage via PQC based optimization.

Classical Verification of Quantum Learning

no code implementations8 Jun 2023 Matthias C. Caro, Marcel Hinsche, Marios Ioannou, Alexander Nietner, Ryan Sweke

Finally, we showcase two general scenarios in learning and verification in which quantum mixture-of-superpositions examples do not lead to sample complexity improvements over classical data.

On the average-case complexity of learning output distributions of quantum circuits

no code implementations9 May 2023 Alexander Nietner, Marios Ioannou, Ryan Sweke, Richard Kueng, Jens Eisert, Marcel Hinsche, Jonas Haferkamp

In this work, we show that learning the output distributions of brickwork random quantum circuits is average-case hard in the statistical query model.

A super-polynomial quantum-classical separation for density modelling

no code implementations26 Oct 2022 Niklas Pirnay, Ryan Sweke, Jens Eisert, Jean-Pierre Seifert

Specifically, we (a) provide an overview of the relationships between hardness results in supervised learning and distribution learning, and (b) show that any weak pseudo-random function can be used to construct a classically hard density modelling problem.

A single $T$-gate makes distribution learning hard

no code implementations7 Jul 2022 Marcel Hinsche, Marios Ioannou, Alexander Nietner, Jonas Haferkamp, Yihui Quek, Dominik Hangleiter, Jean-Pierre Seifert, Jens Eisert, Ryan Sweke

We first show that the generative modelling problem associated with depth $d=n^{\Omega(1)}$ local quantum circuits is hard for any learning algorithm, classical or quantum.

Learnability of the output distributions of local quantum circuits

no code implementations11 Oct 2021 Marcel Hinsche, Marios Ioannou, Alexander Nietner, Jonas Haferkamp, Yihui Quek, Dominik Hangleiter, Jean-Pierre Seifert, Jens Eisert, Ryan Sweke

As many practical generative modelling algorithms use statistical queries -- including those for training quantum circuit Born machines -- our result is broadly applicable and strongly limits the possibility of a meaningful quantum advantage for learning the output distributions of local quantum circuits.

The effect of data encoding on the expressive power of variational quantum machine learning models

1 code implementation19 Aug 2020 Maria Schuld, Ryan Sweke, Johannes Jakob Meyer

Quantum computers can be used for supervised learning by treating parametrised quantum circuits as models that map data inputs to predictions.

On the Quantum versus Classical Learnability of Discrete Distributions

no code implementations28 Jul 2020 Ryan Sweke, Jean-Pierre Seifert, Dominik Hangleiter, Jens Eisert

Here we study the comparative power of classical and quantum learners for generative modelling within the Probably Approximately Correct (PAC) framework.

Expressive power of tensor-network factorizations for probabilistic modeling

1 code implementation NeurIPS 2019 Ivan Glasser, Ryan Sweke, Nicola Pancotti, Jens Eisert, Ignacio Cirac

Inspired by these developments, and the natural correspondence between tensor networks and probabilistic graphical models, we provide a rigorous analysis of the expressive power of various tensor-network factorizations of discrete multivariate probability distributions.

Stochastic gradient descent for hybrid quantum-classical optimization

no code implementations2 Oct 2019 Ryan Sweke, Frederik Wilde, Johannes Meyer, Maria Schuld, Paul K. Faehrmann, Barthélémy Meynard-Piganeau, Jens Eisert

We formalize this notion, which allows us to show that in many relevant cases, including VQE, QAOA and certain quantum classifiers, estimating expectation values with $k$ measurement outcomes results in optimization algorithms whose convergence properties can be rigorously well understood, for any value of $k$.

Inspired by these developments, and the natural correspondence between tensor networks and probabilistic graphical models, we provide a rigorous analysis of the expressive power of various tensor-network factorizations of discrete multivariate probability distributions.

1 code implementation16 Oct 2018 Ryan Sweke, Markus S. Kesselring, Evert P. L. van Nieuwenburg, Jens Eisert

Topological error correcting codes, and particularly the surface code, currently provide the most feasible roadmap towards large-scale fault-tolerant quantum computation.
