Abstract

Abstract Classical deep learning algorithms have aroused great interest in both academia and industry for their utility in image recognition, language translation, decision-making problems and more. In this work, we have provided a quantum deep learning scheme based on multi-qubit entanglement states, including computation and training of neural network in full quantum process. In the course of training, efficient calculation of the distance between unknown unit vector and known unit vector has been realized by proper measurement based on the Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger entanglement states. An exponential speedup over classical algorithms has been demonstrated. In the process of computation, quantum scheme corresponding to multi-layer feedforward neural network has been provided. We have shown the utility of our scheme using Iris dataset. The extensibility of the present scheme to different types of model has also been analyzed.

Quantum Deep Learning: A Review

Mohammed Yousif, Belal Al‐Khateeb

Quantum computing is described as a process by which a system calculates output. Quantum physics usually refers to the smallest discrete unit of any property; the basic unit of data in quantum is the qubit; this qubit unit is equivalent to the bit unit in classical neural networks. Quantum deep learning combines quantum computing with deep learning to reduce training time for neural networks, which has proven effective in solving some intractable problems on classical computers. Quantum deep learning has proven effective in solving some intractable problems on classical computers. A quantum network can benefit from quantum informationflow because it is a more efficient framework than classical systems. Each quantum deep learning consists of a quantum gate. In this review, we provide a comprehensive review of recent studies that include different quantum deep learning applications, including healthcare, handwriting, and many others. Also, methodologies, problems, main datasets, results, strengths, limitations, and challenges are included in this review.

Quantum Entanglement-Based Multi-Layer Parallel Neural Networks

Jincheng Zhang

This paper introduces a novel neural network architecture leveraging the principles of quantum entanglement to enhance parallel computation and learning efficiency. Traditional neural networks are fundamentally limited by the speed of light and the sequential processing of information. We propose a multi-layer parallel neural network where neurons are interconnected through entangled qubits. The synaptic weights are encoded within the entangled states, and the activation function utilizes the superposition property of entangled states for parallel processing. A learning algorithm based on the interference effects within entangled states is developed to adjust the synaptic weights. This approach theoretically enables exponential increases in parallel computation capability and faster learning rates compared to conventional neural networks. The core claim of this work is that quantum entanglement provides a mechanism for instantaneous information transfer between neurons, surpassing the limitations of classical physics and significantly boosting neural network performance.

A quantum deep convolutional neural network for image recognition

Yaochong Li, Ri‐Gui Zhou, Ruqing Xu +2 more

Abstract Deep learning achieves unprecedented success involves many fields, whereas the high requirement of memory and time efficiency tolerance have been the intractable challenges for a long time. On the other hand, quantum computing shows its superiorities in some computation problems owing to its intrinsic properties of superposition and entanglement, which may provide a new path to settle these issues. In this paper, a quantum deep convolutional neural network (QDCNN) model based on the quantum parameterized circuit for image recognition is investigated. In analogy to the classical deep convolutional neural network (DCNN), the architecture that a sequence of quantum convolutional layers followed by a quantum classified layer is illustrated. Inspired by the variational quantum algorithms, a quantum–classical hybrid training scheme is demonstrated for the parameter updating in the QDCNN. The network complexity analysis indicates the proposed model provides the exponential acceleration comparing with the classical counterpart. Furthermore, the MNIST and GTSRB datasets are employed to numerical simulation and the quantitative experimental results verify the feasibility and validity.

Training deep quantum neural networks

Kerstin Beer, Dmytro Bondarenko, Terry Farrelly +4 more

Neural networks enjoy widespread success in both research and industry and, with the advent of quantum technology, it is a crucial challenge to design quantum neural networks for fully quantum learning tasks. Here we propose a truly quantum analogue of classical neurons, which form quantum feedforward neural networks capable of universal quantum computation. We describe the efficient training of these networks using the fidelity as a cost function, providing both classical and efficient quantum implementations. Our method allows for fast optimisation with reduced memory requirements: the number of qudits required scales with only the width, allowing deep-network optimisation. We benchmark our proposal for the quantum task of learning an unknown unitary and find remarkable generalisation behaviour and a striking robustness to noisy training data.

Integrating Quantum Computing with Deep Learning for Enhanced Natural Language Processing

Anand Singh Rajawat, Hussein Mohammed Breesam, Shruti Goyal

Quantum computing with its capacity to compute multiple possibilities at once, and perform some kinds of calculations almost instantly is one leading edge. The integration of QCs and DL undoubtedly represent one such transformative means for improving Natural Language Processing (NLP). By combining the two, this uses quantum principles of superposition and entanglement to make computation faster regarding human language comprehension limitations in classical computing. Deep learning models, specifically neural networks have already made significant improvements over NLP tasks like language translations, sentiment analysis and text generation. Nevertheless, these models also face scalability and computational efficiency issues with huge volumes of data. Quantum computing offers a solution to all this by reducing the time exponentially that it takes to fetch large amounts of language data and running deep learning algorithms. This paper investigates the opportunities that integrating quantum computing and deep learning into NLP practices might unlock. We drafted the fundamentals of quantum computing and why it is a need over classical computing, where we discussed on how quantum beneficial for data processing & optimization of an algorithm. We then explore applications of quantum enhanced deep learning for NLP, with a focus on the impact that training and inference can have on model performance. We demonstrate the utility of this integration by integrating our four SQDs to showcase improvements on diverse NLP tasks through a series of experiments and case studies. We also demonstrate that hybrid quantum-classical approaches allow the combination of traditional ML and quantum-enhanced models, achieving state-of-the-art performance with respect to effectiveness, scalability and precision

A Quantum Approach to Neural Networks

Prof. Ahlam Ansari, Ashhar Shaikh, Faraz Shaikh +1 more

Artificial neural networks, usually just called neural networks, computing systems indefinitely inspired by the biological neural networks and they are extensive in both research as well as industry. It is critical to design quantum Neural Networks for complete quantum learning tasks. In this project, we suggest a computational neural network model based on principles of quantum mechanics which form a quantum feed-forward neural network proficient in universal quantum computation. This structure takes input from one layer of qubits and drives that input onto another layer of qubits. This layer of qubits evaluates this information and drives on the output to the next layer. Eventually, the path leads to the final layer of qubits. The layers do not have to be of the same breadth, meaning they need not have the same number of qubits as the layer before and/or after it. This assembly is trained on which path to take identical to classical ANN. The intended project can be compiled by the subsequent points provided here: 1. The expert training of the quantum neural network utilizing the fidelity as a cost function, providing both conventional and efficient quantum implementations. 2. Use of methods that enable quick optimization with reduced memory requirements. 3. Benchmarking our proposal for the quantum task of learning an unknown unitary and find extraordinary generality and a remarkable sturdiness to noisy training data.
