量子核方法可通过量子空间将经典不可分特征变得可分,但实际应用受限于噪音中等规模量子(NISQ)硬件容量。为将图像等大规模现实数据有效嵌入有限量子设备,本文提出量子生成器核(QGK),通过一组变分生成器组(VGGs)合并通用生成器,形成可参数化的算子,实现对可用量子空间的可扩展覆盖。该方法避免了传统混合架构中固定中间嵌入的局限,通过训练权重向量动态优化生成器投影以匹配目标数据域。实验表明,QGK在投影和分类性能上均优于当前先进量子与经典核方法,展现出作为多种量子机器学习任务通用框架的潜力。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Quantum kernel methods offer significant theoretical benefits by rendering classically inseparable features separable in quantum space. Yet, the practical application of Quantum Machine Learning (QML), currently constrained by the limitations of Noisy Intermediate-Scale Quantum (NISQ) hardware, necessitates effective strategies to compress and embed large-scale real-world data like images into the constrained capacities of existing quantum devices or simulators. To this end, we propose Quantum Generator Kernels (QGKs), a generator-based approach to quantum kernels, comprising a set of Variational Generator Groups (VGGs) that merge universal generators into a parameterizable operator, ensuring scalable coverage of the available quantum space. Thereby, we address shortcomings of current leading strategies employing hybrid architectures, which might prevent exploiting quantum computing's full potential due to fixed intermediate embedding processes. To optimize the kernel alignment to the target domain, we train a weight vector to parameterize the projection of the VGGs in the current data context. Our empirical results demonstrate superior projection and classification capabilities of the QGK compared to state-of-the-art quantum and classical kernel approaches and show its potential to serve as a versatile framework for various QML applications.
