Integrated Encoding and Quantization to Enhance Quanvolutional Neural Networks

Abstract: Image processing is one of the most promising applications for quantum machine learning. Quanvolutional neural networks with nontrainable parameters are the preferred solution to run on current and near future quantum devices. The typical input preprocessing pipeline for quanvolutional layers comprises of four steps: optional input binary quantization, encoding classical data into quantum states, […]

Simulating Quantum Field Theories on Gate-Based Quantum Computers

We implement a simulation of a quantum field theory in 1+1 space–time dimensions on a gate-based quantum computer using the light-front formulation of the theory. The nonperturbative simulation of the Yukawa model field theory is verified on IBM’s simulator and is also demonstrated on a small-scale IBM circuit-based quantum processor, on the cloud, using IBM […]
