Online Convex Optimization of Programmable Quantum Computers to Simulate Time-Varying Quantum Channels

no code implementations9 Dec 2022 Hari Hara Suthan Chittoor, Osvaldo Simeone, Leonardo Banchi, Stefano Pirandola

Simulating quantum channels is a fundamental primitive in quantum computing, since quantum channels define general (trace-preserving) quantum operations.

Quantum reading: the experimental set-up

no code implementations18 Feb 2021 Elena Losero, Giuseppe Ortolano, Fabio Saccomandi, Ivano Ruo-Berchera, Stefano Pirandola, Marco Genovese

The protocol of quantum reading refers to the quantum enhanced retrieval of information from an optical memory, whose generic cell stores a bit of information in two possible lossy channels.

Generalization in Quantum Machine Learning: a Quantum Information Perspective

no code implementations17 Feb 2021 Leonardo Banchi, Jason Pereira, Stefano Pirandola

Here we establish a link between quantum machine learning classification and quantum hypothesis testing (state and channel discrimination) and then show that the accuracy and generalization capability of quantum classifiers depend on the (R\'enyi) mutual informations $I(C{:}Q)$ and $I_2(X{:}Q)$ between the quantum state space $Q$ and the classical parameter space $X$ or class space $C$.

Ultimate Limits of Thermal Pattern Recognition

no code implementations21 Oct 2020 Cillian Harney, Leonardo Banchi, Stefano Pirandola

Quantum Channel Discrimination (QCD) presents a fundamental task in quantum information theory, with critical applications in quantum reading, illumination, data-readout and more.

Quantum-enhanced barcode decoding and pattern recognition

no code implementations7 Oct 2020 Leonardo Banchi, Quntao Zhuang, Stefano Pirandola

Quantum hypothesis testing is one of the most fundamental problems in quantum information theory, with crucial implications in areas like quantum sensing, where it has been used to prove quantum advantage in a series of binary photonic protocols, e. g., for target detection or memory cell readout.

Long-distance continuous-variable measurement-device-independent quantum key distribution with post-selection

no code implementations23 Apr 2020 Kieran N. Wilkinson, Panagiotis Papanastasiou, Carlo Ottaviani, Tobias Gehring, Stefano Pirandola

We introduce a robust scheme for long-distance continuous-variable (CV) measurement-device-independent (MDI) quantum key distribution (QKD) in which we employ post-selection between distant parties communicating through the medium of an untrusted relay.

Noise-Resilient Variational Hybrid Quantum-Classical Optimization

no code implementations13 Dec 2019 Laura Gentini, Alessandro Cuccoli, Stefano Pirandola, Paola Verrucchi, Leonardo Banchi

Variational hybrid quantum-classical optimization represents one of the most promising avenue to show the advantage of nowadays noisy intermediate-scale quantum computers in solving hard problems, such as finding the minimum-energy state of a Hamiltonian or solving some machine-learning tasks.
