近年来,机器学习和深度学习通过多层神经网络在图像分类、语音识别和异常检测等领域取得进展。与此同时,量子计算(QC)凭借量子并行性有望解决经典计算难以处理的问题,推动了量子机器学习(QML)的发展。在各类QML技术中,量子自编码器在压缩高维量子与经典数据方面展现出潜力。然而,由于需选择门操作、排列电路层及调参,设计高效的量子自编码器电路仍具挑战性。本文提出一种基于遗传算法(GA)的神经架构搜索(NAS)框架,自动化生成变分量子电路(VQC)配置,旨在寻找高性能的混合量子-经典自编码器以实现数据重建,同时避免陷入局部极小。我们在图像数据集上验证了该方法的有效性,展示了量子自编码器在噪声环境下的近中期量子时代中进行高效特征提取的潜力。本方法为遗传算法在量子架构搜索中的广泛应用奠定了基础,目标是构建一种可适应不同数据与硬件约束的鲁棒自动化方法。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
In recent years, machine learning and deep learning have driven advances in domains such as image classification, speech recognition, and anomaly detection by leveraging multi-layer neural networks to model complex data. Simultaneously, quantum computing (QC) promises to address classically intractable problems via quantum parallelism, motivating research in quantum machine learning (QML). Among QML techniques, quantum autoencoders show promise for compressing high-dimensional quantum and classical data. However, designing effective quantum circuit architectures for quantum autoencoders remains challenging due to the complexity of selecting gates, arranging circuit layers, and tuning parameters. This paper proposes a neural architecture search (NAS) framework that automates the design of quantum autoencoders using a genetic algorithm (GA). By systematically evolving variational quantum circuit (VQC) configurations, our method seeks to identify high-performing hybrid quantum-classical autoencoders for data reconstruction without becoming trapped in local minima. We demonstrate effectiveness on image datasets, highlighting the potential of quantum autoencoders for efficient feature extraction within a noise-prone, near-term quantum era. Our approach lays a foundation for broader application of genetic algorithms to quantum architecture search, aiming for a robust, automated method that can adapt to varied data and hardware constraints.
