Quantum BP Neuron and Its Application in Recognition of Noisy English Letter
Guangqiang Zhang
Abstract
Quantum Neural Networks(QNN),which integrates the characteristics of artificial neural networks with quantum computing,will become a promising field of information processing.In this paper,a quantum neuron model based on the phase-shift gate and controlled-not gate is constructed with the conventional back propagation learning rule.Its convergence performance is discussed by numerical simulations.Based on this model,a three-layers quantum networks is proposed.The numerical experiments of the identification of noisy English letters show that the proposed quantum networks can identify the noisy English letters efficaciously when the noise variance is less than 0.35,and has more improvement performance in anti-noise than that of conventional Back-Propagation Neural Network.
