将神经网络自然量子化,实现从经典到量子的平滑过渡并展现量子优势。

Natural Quantization of Neural Networks

  • 用量子比特和量子门实现神经元与激活函数,旋转角由权重和测量结果决定。
  • 在MNIST子集上,量子模型验证误差低于经典模型,存在量子优势区间。
  • 可通过纠缠角控制量子程度,临界点附近出现学习能力骤降的量子相变。

我们提出一种标准神经网络的自然量子化方法,其中神经元对应量子比特,激活函数通过量子门和测量实现。最简单的量子化神经网络采用单量子比特旋转,旋转角度依赖于前一层的权重和测量结果。该架构可平滑地从无量子不确定性的纯经典极限过渡到引入叠加态的量子情形,精确复现经典神经网络。我们在标准MNIST数据集的子集上进行基准测试,发现存在一个'量子优势'区域,此时量子实现的验证误差率低于经典模型。我们还提出另一种通过与神经元量子比特纠缠的辅助量子比特进行弱测量引入量子性的方法。该量子神经网络同样可通过调控纠缠角 $g$ 平滑调节量子程度,当 $g = rac{/pi}{2}$ 时重现经典情形。结果显示,验证误差在量子区域最小化,并观察到量子相变现象:在临界点 $g_c$ 处,量子网络的学习能力急剧下降。所提出的量子神经网络可在现有商用量子计算机上实现,适用于标准数据集。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

We propose a natural quantization of a standard neural network, where the neurons correspond to qubits and the activation functions are implemented via quantum gates and measurements. The simplest quantized neural network corresponds to applying single-qubit rotations, with the rotation angles being dependent on the weights and measurement outcomes of the previous layer. This realization has the advantage of being smoothly tunable from the purely classical limit with no quantum uncertainty (thereby reproducing the classical neural network exactly) to a quantum case, where superpositions introduce an intrinsic uncertainty in the network. We benchmark this architecture on a subset of the standard MNIST dataset and find a regime of "quantum advantage," where the validation error rate in the quantum realization is smaller than that in the classical model. We also consider another approach where quantumness is introduced via weak measurements of ancilla qubits entangled with the neuron qubits. This quantum neural network also allows for smooth tuning of the degree of quantumness by controlling an entanglement angle, $g$, with $g=\fracπ2$ replicating the classical regime. We find that validation error is also minimized within the quantum regime in this approach. We also observe a quantum transition, with sharp loss of the quantum network's ability to learn at a critical point $g_c$. The proposed quantum neural networks are readily realizable in present-day quantum computers on commercial datasets.
