Analyzing Machine Learning Performance in a Hybrid Quantum Computing and HPC Environment

Samuel T. Bieberich, Sandoval, Michael A.

We explored the possible benefits of integrating quantum simulators in a "hybrid" quantum machine learning (QML) workflow that uses both classical and quantum computations in a high-performance computing (HPC) environment. Here, we used two Oak Ridge Leadership Computing Facility HPC systems, Andes (a commodity-type Linux cluster) and Frontier (an HPE Cray EX supercomputer), along with quantum computing simulators from PennyLane and IBMQ to evaluate a hybrid QML program -- using a "ground up" approach. Using 1 GPU on Frontier, we found ~56% and ~77% speedups when compared to using Frontier's CPU and a local, non-HPC system, respectively. Analyzing performance on a larger dataset using multiple threads, the Frontier GPUs performed ~92% and ~48% faster than the Andes and Frontier CPUs, respectively. More impressively, this is a ~226% speedup over a local, non-HPC system's runtime using the same simulator and number of threads. We hope that this proof of concept will motivate more intensive hybrid QC/HPC scaling studies in the future.

Back in June 2022, Oak Ridge National Laboratory debuted Frontier—the world's most powerful super-computer. Frontier can perform a billion billion calculations per second. And yet there are computational problems that Frontier may never be able to solve in a reasonable amount of time.

Quantum Frontiers: A Novel Computational Architecture

Jincheng Zhang

This paper proposes a novel computational architecture predicated on the utilization of quantum frontiers – specifically, quantum superposition and entanglement – as the fundamental computational units. Traditional quantum computing approaches often rely on manipulating qubits in specific, well-defined states, limiting their potential for complex calculations. This architecture, termed "Quantum Frontiers," shifts the paradigm by embracing the inherent complexity and interconnectedness of quantum states at their most basic level. We detail a framework for designing algorithms and hardware that directly leverage superposition and entanglement, aiming to unlock computational capabilities beyond the constraints of current methodologies. The core concept involves treating the dynamic evolution of quantum states – the inherent "frontier" – as the primary computational process. This approach offers a potential pathway to overcome limitations associated with qubit control fidelity and algorithm design in conventional quantum computing. The proposed architecture utilizes a layered design, incorporating a quantum state preparation layer, a dynamic quantum processing layer, and a measurement/output layer. Mathematical formulations are presented to illustrate key concepts and operational principles. The architecture's adaptability and potential impact on future quantum computation are discussed.
