用量子提升法学习深度3电路的相位态,实现高效量子版本的近似学习。

Learning depth-3 circuits via quantum agnostic boosting

  • 提出量子无监督提升算法,将弱学习器升级为强学习器。
  • 可在多项式时间内学习大小为poly(n)的深度3电路,误差ε。
  • 适用于有量子样本的复杂布尔函数学习,经典方法尚未解决此问题。

我们首次研究了在函数类 $\mathsf{C}\subseteq \{c:\{0,1\}^n\rightarrow \{0,1\}\}$ 下对相位态的量子无监督学习:给定与某个 $c\in \mathsf{C}$ 对应的相位态 $|ϕ_c\rangle=\frac{1}{\sqrt{2^n}}\sum_{x\in \{0,1\}^n}(-1)^{c(x)}|x\rangle$ 有保真度 $\textsf{opt}$ 的未知 $n$-量子比特态 $|ψ\rangle$,目标是输出一个态 $|ϕ\rangle$ 满足 $|\langle ϕ|ψ\rangle|^2 \geq \textsf{opt}-\varepsilon$。我们给出了以下类别的无监督学习协议:(i) 大小为 $t$ 的决策树,时间复杂度为 $\textsf{poly}(n,t,1/\varepsilon)$;由此可得 $k$-juntas 可在 $\textsf{poly}(n,2^k,1/\varepsilon)$ 时间内学习。(ii) $s$-项 DNF 公式,时间复杂度为 $\textsf{poly}(n,(s/\varepsilon)^{\log \log (s/\varepsilon) \cdot \log(1/\varepsilon)})$。核心贡献是量子无监督提升协议:将一个弱学习器(输出保真度至少为 $\textsf{opt}/\textsf{poly}(n)$ 的奇偶态)转化为强学习器(输出奇偶态叠加,保真度达 $\textsf{opt}-\varepsilon$)。利用该提升方法,我们获得了在均匀 PAC 模型下,以量子样本学习 $\textsf{poly}(n)$ 大小深度3电路的 $n^{O(\log(n/\varepsilon) \cdot \log \log n)}$ 时间算法。经典情况下,此类复杂度的算法仍是开放问题,本工作在量子样本下给出解答。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

We initiate the study of quantum agnostic learning of phase states with respect to a function class $\mathsf{C}\subseteq \{c:\{0,1\}^n\rightarrow \{0,1\}\}$: given copies of an unknown $n$-qubit state $|ψ\rangle$ which has fidelity $\textsf{opt}$ with a phase state $|ϕ_c\rangle=\frac{1}{\sqrt{2^n}}\sum_{x\in \{0,1\}^n}(-1)^{c(x)}|x\rangle$ for some $c\in \mathsf{C}$, output $|ϕ\rangle$ which has fidelity $|\langle ϕ| ψ\rangle|^2 \geq \textsf{opt}-\varepsilon$. To this end, we give agnostic learning protocols for the following classes: (i) Size-$t$ decision trees which runs in time $\textsf{poly}(n,t,1/\varepsilon)$. This also implies $k$-juntas can be agnostically learned in time $\textsf{poly}(n,2^k,1/\varepsilon)$. (ii) $s$-term DNF formulas in time $\textsf{poly}(n,(s/\varepsilon)^{\log \log (s/\varepsilon) \cdot \log(1/\varepsilon)})$. Our main technical contribution is a quantum agnostic boosting protocol which converts a weak agnostic learner, which outputs a parity state $|ϕ\rangle$ such that $|\langle ϕ|ψ\rangle|^2\geq \textsf{opt}/\textsf{poly}(n)$, into a strong learner which outputs a superposition of parity states $|ϕ'\rangle$ such that $|\langle ϕ'|ψ\rangle|^2\geq \textsf{opt} - \varepsilon$. Using quantum agnostic boosting, we obtain a $n^{O(\log(n/\varepsilon) \cdot \log \log n)}$-time algorithm for $\varepsilon$-learning $\textsf{poly}(n)$-sized depth-$3$ circuits (consisting of $\textsf{AND}$, $\textsf{OR}$, $\textsf{NOT}$ gates) in the uniform $\textsf{PAC}$ model given quantum examples. Classically, obtaining an algorithm with a similar complexity has been an open question in the $\textsf{PAC}$ model and our work answers this given quantum examples.
