Abstract For adaptive artificial intelligence systems, the question of the possibility of online learning is especially important, since such training provides adaptation. The purpose of the work is to consider methods of quantum machine online learning for the two most common architectures of quantum neural networks: feedforward and recurrent. The work uses the quantumz module available on PyPI to emulate quantum computing and create artificial quantum neural networks. In addition, the genser module is used to transform data dimensions, which provides reversible transformation of dimensions without loss of information. The data for the experiments are taken from open sources. The paper implements the machine learning method without optimization, proposed by the author earlier. Online learning algorithms for recurrent and feedforward quantum neural network are presented and experimentally confirmed. The proposed learning algorithms can be used as data science tools, as well as a part of adaptive intelligent control systems. The developed software can fully unleash its potential only on quantum computers, but, in the case of a small number of quantum registers, it can also be used in systems that emulate quantum computing, or in photonic computers.

Over the last decade, researchers have studied the synergy between quantum computing (QC) and classical machine learning (ML) algorithms. However, measurements in QC often disturb or destroy quantum states, requiring multiple repetitions of data processing to estimate observable values. In particular, this prevents online (i.e., real-time, single-shot) processing of temporal data as measurements are commonly performed during intermediate stages. Recently, it was proposed to sidestep this issue by focusing on tasks with quantum output, thereby removing the need for detectors. Inspired by reservoir computers, a model was proposed where only a subset of the internal parameters are optimized while keeping the others fixed at random values. Here, we also process quantum time series, but we do so using a quantum optical recurrent neural network (QORNN) of which all internal interactions can be trained. As expected, this approach yields higher performance, as long as training the QORNN is feasible. We further show that our model can enhance the transmission rate of quantum channels that experience certain memory effects. Moreover, it can counteract similar memory effects if they are unwanted, a task that could previously only be solved when redundantly encoded input signals were available. Finally, we run a small-scale version of this last task on the photonic processor Borealis, demonstrating that our QORNN can be constructed using currently existing hardware.
Quantum computing is one of the most exciting research areas of the last decades. At the same time, methods of machine learning have started to dominate science, industry and our everyday life. In this thesis we combine these two essential research topics of the 21st century and introduce dissipative quantum neural networks (DQNNs), which are designed for fully quantum learning tasks, are capable of universal quantum computation and have low memory requirements while training. We start the discussion of this interdisciplinary topic by introducing artificial neural networks, which are a very common tool in classical machine learning. Next, we give an overview on quantum information. Here we focus on quantum algorithms and circuits, which are used to implement quantum neural networks. Moreover, we explain the opportunities and challenges arising with today's quantum computers. The discussion of the architecture and training algorithm of the DQNNs forms the core of this work. These networks are optimised with training data pairs in form of input and desired output states and therefore can be used for characterising unknown or untrusted quantum devices. We not only demonstrate the generalisation behaviour of these quantum neural networks using classical simulations, but also implement them successfully on actual quantum computers. To understand the ultimate limits for such quantum machine learning methods, we discuss the quantum no free lunch theorem, which describes a bound on the probability that a quantum device, which can be modelled as a unitary process and is optimised with quantum examples, gives an incorrect output for a random input. This gives us a tool to review the learning behaviour of quantum neural networks in general and the DQNNs in particular. Moreover we expand the area of applications of DQNNs in two directions. In the first case, we include additional information beyond just the training data pairs: since quantum devices are always structured, the resulting data is always structured as well. We modify the DQNN's training algorithm such that knowledge about the graph-structure of the training data pairs is included in the training process and show that this can lead to better generalisation behaviour. Both the original DQNN and the DQNN including graph structure are trained with data pairs in order to characterise an underlying relation. However, in the second extension of the algorithm we aim to learn characteristics of a set of quantum states in order to extend it to quantum states which have similar properties. Therefore we build a generative adversarial model where two DQNNs, called the generator and discriminator, are trained in a competitive way. Overall, we observe that DQNNs can not only be trained efficiently but also, similar to their classical counterparts, modified to suit different applications.
In the past few years, quantum computing and machine learning fostered rapid developments in their respective areas of application, introducing new perspectives on how information processing systems can be realized and programmed. The rapidly growing field of quantum machine learning aims at bringing together these two ongoing revolutions. Here, we first review a series of recent works describing the implementation of artificial neurons and feedforward neural networks on quantum processors. We then present an original realization of efficient individual quantum nodes based on variational unsampling protocols. We investigate different learning strategies involving global and local layerwise cost functions, and we assess their performances also in the presence of statistical measurement noise. While keeping full compatibility with the overall memory-efficient feedforward architecture, our constructions effectively reduce the quantum circuit depth required to determine the activation probability of single neurons upon input of the relevant data-encoding quantum states. This suggests a viable approach toward the use of quantum neural networks for pattern classification on near-term quantum hardware.
A promising combination of artificial intelligence and quantum computing, quantum neural networks (QNNs) have the potential to completely transform the way neural networks interpret and learn from data. QNNs can outperform classical neural networks in terms of speed, efficiency, and scalability by utilizing the special qualities of quantum physics, such as superposition, entanglement, and quantum parallelism. The basic ideas of QNNs, their structures, and the ways in which quantum algorithms can be incorporated into machine learning processes to improve problem-solving skills are all examined in this study. current developments in QNNs, emphasizing how they can be used for challenging applications including pattern recognition, optimization, and high-dimensional data space decision-making. We also go over the difficulties in creating scalable QNN models and the possible future applications of QNNs in artificial intelligence. By utilizing the potential of quantum computing, QNNs have the potential to advance artificial intelligence by providing answers to issues that are now intractable through traditional methods.
ABSTRACT
In the modern day , we are witnessing two complementary trends, exponential growth in data and shrinking of chip size. The Data is approaching to 44 zettabytes by 2020 and the chips are now available with 10nm technology. The hyperconnectivity between machine-to-machine and humanto- machine creates multi-dimensional data which is more complex. Our thesis addresses the quantum meta layer abstraction which provides the interface to the Application layer to design quantum and classical algorithms. The first part of the thesis addresses the quantum algorithms and second part address classical algorithms running on top of quantum meta layer. In the first part of our thesis we explored quantum stochastic algorithm for ranking Quantum Webpages, analogous to the classical Google PageRank. The architecture is a six-waveguide photonic lattice that runs finely-tuned quantum stochastic walk. The evolution of density matrix
solves the ranking of quantum webpages. We force the photon stochastic walk for quantum PageRank by matching the entries of Google matrix with parameters of the Kossakowski-Lindblad master equation. We have done extensive simulation to observe the density matrix evolution with different parameter settings. We have used noise in the Kossakowski-Lindblad master equation to break the symmetry (reciprocity) property of quantum system, which helps in distinguishable measurement of the quantum PageRank. We next propose a new quantum deep learning with photonic lattice waveguide as a feedforward neural network. The proposed deep photonic neural network uses the quantum properties for learning. The hidden layers of our deep photonic neural network can be designed to learn object representation and mentains the quantum quantum properties for longer time for optimal learning.
The second part of the thesis discusses the data based learning. We have used data graph method which captures the system representation. The proposed data graph model captures and encodes the data efficiently and then the data graph is updated and trained with new data to provide efficient predictions. The model retains the previously learned knowledge by transfer learning and improves it with new training. The proposed method is highly adaptive and scalable for different real-time scenarios. Data graph models the system where every node (object) is associated with data and if two objects are related then they are linked with a data edge. The proposed algorithm is an incremental algorithm which learns hidden objects and hidden relationships through the data pattern over time and updates the model accordingly. We have used algebraic graph transformation methods to trigger the mutation of the Data Graph. This new updated Data Graph behaves differently for the data it observes. We explore more into machine learning algorithms and have proposed a complete framework to predict the state of the system based on the system parameters. We have proposed the discretization of the data points using the symbol algebra and used Bayesian machine…
