Neuromorphic Quantum Computing for Prediction and Optimization (NeMoQC)

Christoph Räth, Joel Steinegger, Fabian Fischbach

The application of AI-based forecasting methods has led to great progress in the prediction of complex systems. Among the AI-methods being used reservoir computing (RC) turns out to be so far the most promising approach as it combines superior prediction results with little CPU-needs for training. In Quantum Reservoir Computing (QRC) the reservoir that is commonly a random network, is replaced by a system of entangled qubits. Using a spin-network as ad hoc quantum reservoir it was demonstrated that a NARMA process can be well predicted using as few as 10 qubits [1]. Our recent first results suggest that even a 4-6 qubit system may be sufficient to predict the Lorenz-system as well as with “conventional” RC [2]. In the forthcoming research project “Neuromorphic Quantum Computing (NeMoQC)” within the framework of the DLR Quantum Computing Initiative (QCI) we will now investigate systematically which quantum reservoirs are best suited for prediction and optimization tasks. In a software/hardware codesign we will seek for hardware realizations of QRC. Further, these newly developed QC-based forecasting and optimization methods are to be utilized in real world applications. Industrial partners for both the hardware design and the applications in real world use cases are welcome to join our project. [1] R. Martinez-Pena et al., PRL, 127, 100502 (2021) [2] J.

Computing with two quantum reservoirs connected via optimized two-qubit nonselective measurements

Stephen Vintskevich, Grigoriev, Dmitry

Currently, quantum reservoir computing is one of the most promising and experimentally accessible techniques for hybrid, quantum-classical machine learning. However, its applications are limited due to practical restrictions on the size of quantum systems and the influence of noise. Here we propose a novel approach to connect two quantum reservoirs in a network to overcome these issues and enhance their computing performance. To transfer information between quantum reservoirs, we perform optimized two-qubit non-selective measurements. We suggest a general heuristic optimization strategy based on tensor network language and matrix representation of two-qubit quantum channels specified for quantum reservoir computing. In addition, we introduce a single qubit purification channel and its optimization for further enhancement of quantum reservoir computing. We also demonstrate that the optimized channels applied to a seven-qubit network can efficiently transfer information between its parts with the resulting performance comparable to a network up to twenty-five qubits connected via a classical information link.
