Abstract

Abstract Quantum entanglement becomes increasingly complex to analyze in many-body systems due to exponential growth in complexity with system size. In this work, we explore the potential of quantum machine learning (QML) to circumvent this. Specifically, we train a parameterized quantum neural network (QNN) model to detect transitions in the entanglement properties of the ground state in a multi-spin Ising model. This approach enables the classification of different entanglement states and provides deeper insights into the behavior of entanglement under multi-spin interactions. Our results demonstrate that QML can effectively simplify the classification process and overcome the complexity challenges encountered by classical algorithms.

Machine Learning Based Detection of Quantum Entanglement in Two-Qubit Systems

Shanidev Ambadas Sontakke

This paper explores the use of machine learning techniques for detecting quantum entanglement in two-qubit systems. A dataset of randomly generated quantum states was constructed and labeled using the Positive Partial Transpose (PPT) criterion. Several supervised learning models, including Random Forest and Multi-Layer Perceptron neural networks, were trained to classify quantum states as entangled or separable. The results show that machine learning models can effectively learn patterns from quantum state data, while also highlighting the impact of dataset imbalance on classification performance. This study demonstrates the potential of machine learning as a complementary tool for quantum entanglement detection and provides insights into the challenges and opportunities of integrating artificial intelligence with quantum physics.

Quantum phase transition detection via quantum support vector machine

Youle Wang, Linyun Cao

Abstract Unveiling quantum phase transitions (QPTs) is important for characterising physical systems at low temperatures. However, the detection of these transitions is encumbered by significant challenges, especially in the face of the exponential growth in ground state complexity with system scale. The emergence of quantum machine learning has lately gained traction as a promising method for elucidating the properties of many-body systems, providing a different avenue to study QPT. In this paper, we propose a novel and efficient quantum algorithm for identifying QPT synthesising quantum feature with quantum machine learning. Our approach is anchored in the utilisation of quantum computers to directly encode the kernel matrix into Hilbert spaces, realised by the parallel implementation of the quantum feature map. Specifically, we generate a quantum state encoding the information of ground states of the given quantum systems by employing the parallel quantum feature map. The resultant state preparation circuit is then used to implement a block-encoding of the kernel matrix. Equipped with the associated labels and this encoding, we devise a new quantum support vector machine (QSVM) algorithm, forming the main ingredient of the classifier. The presented method refines the efficiency of the prevailing QSVM algorithm for processing quantum and classical data. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our quantum classifier in predicting QPT within the transverse-field Ising model. The findings affirm the efficacy of quantum machine learning in recognising QPT in many-body systems and offer insights into the design of quantum machine learning algorithms.

Classification analysis of transition-metal chalcogenides and oxides using quantum machine learning

Kurudi V Vedavyasa, Ashok Kumar

Quantum machine learning (QML) leverages the potential from machine learning to explore the subtle patterns in huge datasets of complex nature with quantum advantages. This exponentially reduces the time and resources necessary for computations. QML accelerates materials research with active screening of chemical space, identifying novel materials for practical applications and classifying structurally diverse materials given their measured properties. This study analyzes the performance of three efficient quantum machine learning algorithms viz., variational quantum eigen solver (VQE), quantum support vector machine (QSVM) and quantum neural networks (QNN) for the classification of transition metal chalcogenides and oxides (TMCs &TMOs). The analysis is performed on three datasets of different sizes containing 102, 192 and 350 materials with TMCs and TMOs labelled as +1 and -1 respectively. By employing feature selection, classical machine learning achieves 100% accuracy whereas QML achieves the highest performance of 99% and 98% for test and train data respectively on QSVC. This study establishes the competence of QML models in materials classification and explores the quantum circuits in terms of over-fitting using the circuit descriptors expressibility and entangling capability. In addition, the perspectives on QML in materials research with noisy intermediate scale quantum (NISQ) devices is given.

Quantum Machine Learning on Noisy Intermediate Scale Quantum Devices

Muhammad Kashif

The field of machine learning has experienced rapid development over the last decades and has found numerous applications across diverse domains ranging from industrial to personal settings. Quantum computing, on the other hand, is an emerging field offering a fundamentally different computational paradigm that can potentially surpass traditional computational approaches in certain domains.In this thesis, we explore the intersection between these two fields, commonly referred to as quantum machine learning (QML). In particular, we focus on Quantum neural networks (QNNs), which have gained attention in the field of QML due to the unparalleled success of their classical counterparts. However, the limitations of the current quantum computers have led to hybrid approaches combining classical and quantum devices. We, therefore, use hybrid quantum neural networks (HQNNs) to explore the potential advantages of QNNs in various practical applications.First, we explore the design space of HQNNs as there is no standardized methodology for designing quantum layers in HQNNs. Various quantum layer designs with different data encoding techniques are investigated, identifying the optimal set of quantum gates for different encoding strategies.We also investigate the impact of cost function globality and locality on the performance of HQNNs for real-world applications, namely: binary and multi-class classification. We exploit a single parameterized quantum circuit (PQC) structure with both single (local) and all-qubit (global) measurements. Our results show that the global cost function significantly outperforms the local cost function on multi-class classification. In contrast, both global and local cost functions have comparable performance on binary classification problems.Moreover, we propose a framework for analyzing the impact of various components of HQNNs with respect to each other on multi-class classification tasks, specifically focusing on the data encoding and quantum layers (expressibility and entanglement between qubits). Two ansatz structures, entangled and unentangled, are used to investigate the existence of the barren plateau (BP) in HQNNs. We further evaluate the impact of entanglement on trainability and provide recommendations for different constraint scenarios. The results show that the overall expressibility of the quantum layers impacts the presence of the BP phenomenon and that entanglement plays a role in the training landscapes of HQNNs, depending on the data encoding technique. Finally, we propose a new architecture for quantum neural networks (QNNs) called residual quantum neural networks (ResQNets), inspired by the classical residual neural networks (ResNets), to address the issue of BP in QNNs. ResQNets split the conventional QNN architecture into multiple quantum nodes (QNs), each with its own PQC, allowing residual connections between QNs. The results show that incorporating residual connections results in improved training performance, making ResQNets a promising solution for overcoming the problem of BP in QNNs.

Entanglement classification via neural network quantum states

Abstract The task of classifying the entanglement properties of a multipartite quantum state poses a remarkable challenge due to the exponentially increasing number of ways in which quantum systems can share quantum correlations. Tackling such challenge requires a combination of sophisticated theoretical and computational techniques. In this paper we combine machine-learning tools and the theory of quantum entanglement to perform entanglement classification for multipartite qubit systems in pure states. We use a parameterisation of quantum systems using artificial neural networks in a restricted Boltzmann machine architecture, known as Neural Network Quantum States, whose entanglement properties can be deduced via a constrained, reinforcement learning procedure. In this way, Separable Neural Network States can be used to build entanglement witnesses for any target state.
