Sublinear quantum algorithms for training linear and kernel-based classifiers

no code implementations4 Apr 2019 Tongyang Li, Shouvanik Chakrabarti, Xiaodi Wu

We design sublinear quantum algorithms for the same task running in $\tilde{O}(\sqrt{n} +\sqrt{d})$ time, a quadratic improvement in both $n$ and $d$.

Quantum Wasserstein Generative Adversarial Networks

1 code implementation NeurIPS 2019 Shouvanik Chakrabarti, Yiming Huang, Tongyang Li, Soheil Feizi, Xiaodi Wu

The study of quantum generative models is well-motivated, not only because of its importance in quantum machine learning and quantum chemistry but also because of the perspective of its implementation on near-term quantum machines.

On the Principles of Differentiable Quantum Programming Languages

1 code implementation2 Apr 2020 Shaopeng Zhu, Shih-Han Hung, Shouvanik Chakrabarti, Xiaodi Wu

We also conduct a case study of training a VQC instance with controls, which shows the advantage of our scheme over existing auto-differentiation for quantum circuits without controls.

Sublinear classical and quantum algorithms for general matrix games

no code implementations11 Dec 2020 Tongyang Li, Chunhao Wang, Shouvanik Chakrabarti, Xiaodi Wu

We give a sublinear classical algorithm that can interpolate smoothly between these two cases: for any fixed $q\in (1, 2]$, we solve the matrix game where $\mathcal{X}$ is a $\ell_{q}$-norm unit ball within additive error $\epsilon$ in time $\tilde{O}((n+d)/{\epsilon^{2}})$.

Specifically, we show for typical under-parameterized QNNs, there exists a dataset that induces a loss function with the number of spurious local minima depending exponentially on the number of parameters.

Quantum Hamiltonian Descent

1 code implementation2 Mar 2023 Jiaqi Leng, Ethan Hickman, Joseph Li, Xiaodi Wu

We propose Quantum Hamiltonian Descent (QHD), which is derived from the path integral of dynamical systems referring to the continuous-time limit of classical gradient descent algorithms, as a truly quantum counterpart of classical gradient methods where the contribution from classically-prohibited trajectories can significantly boost QHD's performance for non-convex optimization.

Analyzing Convergence in Quantum Neural Networks: Deviations from Neural Tangent Kernels

no code implementations26 Mar 2023 Xuchen You, Shouvanik Chakrabarti, Boyang Chen, Xiaodi Wu

In this work, we study the dynamics of QNNs and show that contrary to popular belief it is qualitatively different from that of any kernel regression: due to the unitarity of quantum operations, there is a non-negligible deviation from the tangent kernel regression derived at the random initialization.

In this paper, we identify a family of nonconvex continuous optimization instances, each $d$-dimensional instance with $2^d$ local minima, to demonstrate a quantum-classical performance separation.
