用量子高斯过程预测未知量子通道输出,支持局部与全局系统建模。

Quantum Gaussian processes for prediction of channel observations

  • 基于量子通道的勒贝格先验构建闭式核函数,实现对输出期望值的回归预测。
  • 小子系统下精度高,大系统时因维数因子导致学习困难,但可调参恢复可学习性。
  • 适用于噪声环境下的量子态制备优化,适合研究量子动力学与实验误差鲁棒性。

给定一组输入态,我们考虑在仅有限测量条件下预测未知量子演化输出的泡利可观测量期望值。最近提出的量子高斯过程(QGP)回归已应用于各类酉演化场景。本文将QGP框架扩展至非酉动力学,证明通道输出收敛于QGP,并在量子通道上采用均匀(勒贝格测度)先验导出闭式核函数。然而,该核函数中的维度因子决定了所需观测精度:当通道和可观测量局限于小子系统时尚可管理,但若子系统随系统尺寸大幅增长,则出现指数抑制,难以学习。由于勒贝格先验在多数应用中过于宽泛,我们提出一种经验贝叶斯启发式方法,以可学习尺度参数替代维度因子,同时保留状态重叠相关结构。数值模拟显示,64量子比特系统中,使用勒贝格核的通道QGP回归对局部通道表现出强归纳偏置,实现精确外推;对于全局64量子比特通道,经缩放后的核函数恢复可学习性,预测性能随测量次数增加而系统提升。噪声量子计算机上的实验进一步验证了QGP回归在实际条件下的鲁棒性。此外,我们还验证了QGP作为噪声XXZ动力学下态制备的贝叶斯优化代理的有效性。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Given a set of input states, we consider the task of predicting the expectation value of a Pauli observable at the output of an unknown quantum evolution, using only a limited number of measurements. Recently, quantum Gaussian process (QGP) regression was introduced for this task across various classes of unitary evolution. Here, we extend the QGP framework beyond unitary dynamics. In particular, we prove convergence of the channel's outputs to a QGP and derive the associated closed-form kernel under a uniform (Lebesgue measure) prior over quantum channels. The kernel's dimensional factor, however, dictates the required observation precision. While manageable when the channel and observable are restricted to small subsystems, exponential suppression precludes learning when the subsystem grows extensively with the system size. Since the Lebesgue prior is overly broad for many applications, we propose an empirical Bayes heuristic that replaces the dimensional factor with a learnable scale parameter while retaining the kernel's state-overlap correlation structure. In numerical simulations of up to 64 qubits, channel QGP regression with the Lebesgue kernel exhibits a strong inductive bias for local channels, enabling faithful extrapolation. For global 64-qubit channels, the rescaled kernel restores learnability, with predictions improving systematically with the shot budget. Results from a noisy quantum computer further demonstrate the robustness of QGP regression under experimental conditions. Beyond regression, we validate QGPs as Bayesian-optimization surrogates for state preparation under noisy XXZ dynamics.
