Fundamentals of quantum Boltzmann machine learning with visible and hidden units

  • 推导出量子相对熵梯度的解析表达式,适合在量子计算机上估算。
  • 针对量子可见/经典隐藏等不同配置,给出具体梯度公式与算法。
  • 引入佩茨-塔萨利熵,拓展训练目标,推动量子生成建模发展。

经典玻尔兹曼机常用于生成建模,通过调节模型分布参数使其逼近目标分布。其训练依赖于相对熵梯度估计,这一过程在同时具有可见与隐藏单元时已有成熟理论。然而,将该方法推广至包含可见与隐藏单元的量子玻尔兹曼机进行量子态学习,长期存在障碍。本文推导出目标量子态与量子玻尔兹曼机可见单元约化态之间量子相对熵梯度的解析表达式,该表达式可通过量子计算机上的模块流生成的酉旋转进行估计,类似于作者此前关于旋转佩茨恢复映射的工作。由此提出一种量子梯度估计算法。进一步考虑量子可见单元与经典隐藏单元、或反之的特殊情形,分别给出梯度解析表达式及对应量子算法。最后,将目标函数替换为佩茨-塔萨利相对熵,推导其梯度表达式,并基于对矩阵幂函数导数的独立推导,设计相应量子算法。本工作为带可见与隐藏单元的量子玻尔兹曼机在生成建模与量子态学习中的训练提供了关键进展。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

One of the primary applications of classical Boltzmann machines is generative modeling, wherein the goal is to tune the parameters of a model distribution so that it closely approximates a target distribution. Training relies on estimating the gradient of the relative entropy between the target and model distributions, a task that is well understood when the classical Boltzmann machine has both visible and hidden units. For some years now, it has been an obstacle to generalize this finding to quantum state learning with quantum Boltzmann machines that have both visible and hidden units. In this paper, I derive an analytical expression for the gradient of the quantum relative entropy between a target quantum state and the reduced state of the visible units of a quantum Boltzmann machine. Crucially, this expression is amenable to estimation on a quantum computer, as it involves modular-flow-generated unitary rotations reminiscent of those appearing in my prior work on rotated Petz recovery maps. This leads to a quantum algorithm for gradient estimation in this setting. I then specialize the setting to quantum visible units and classical hidden units, and vice versa; I also provide analytical expressions for the gradients, along with quantum algorithms for estimating them. Finally, I replace the quantum relative entropy objective function with the Petz-Tsallis relative entropy; here I develop an analytical expression for the gradient and sketch a quantum algorithm for estimating it, as an application of an independent derivation of a formula for the derivative of the matrix power function, which also involves modular-flow-generated unitary rotations. Ultimately, this paper demarcates progress in training quantum Boltzmann machines with visible and hidden units for generative modeling and quantum state learning.
