Hybrid Quantum-Classical Autoencoders for End-to-End Radio Communication

Quantum neural networks are emerging as potential candidates to leverage noisy quantum processing units for applications. Here we introduce hybrid quantum-classical autoencoders for end-to-end radio communication. In the physical layer of classical wireless systems, we study the performance of simulated architectures for standard encoded radio signals over a noisy channel. We implement a hybrid model, where a quantum decoder in the receiver works with a classical encoder in the transmitter part. Besides learning a latent space representation of the input symbols with good robustness against signal degradation, a generalized data re-uploading scheme for the qubit-based circuits allows to meet inference-time constraints of the application.

Photonic Quantum Policy Learning in OpenAI Gym

In recent years, near-term noisy intermediate scale quantum (NISQ) computing devices have become available. One of the most promising application areas to leverage such NISQ quantum computer prototypes is quantum machine learning. While quantum neural networks are widely studied for supervised learning, quantum reinforcement learning is still just an emerging field of this area. To solve a classical continuous control problem, we use a continuous-variable quantum machine learning approach. We introduce proximal policy optimization for photonic variational quantum agents and also study the effect of the data re-uploading. We present performance assessment via empirical study using Strawberry Fields, a photonic simulator Fock backend and a hybrid training framework connected to an OpenAI Gym environment and TensorFlow. For the restricted CartPole problem, the two variations of the photonic policy learning achieve comparable performance levels and a faster convergence than the baseline classical neural network of same number of trainable parameters.

Quantum Optimization for the Graph Coloring Problem with Space-Efficient Embedding

Current quantum computing devices have different strengths and weaknesses depending on their architectures. This means that flexible approaches to circuit design are necessary. We address this task by introducing a novel space-efficient quantum optimization algorithm for the graph coloring problem. Our circuits are deeper than the ones of the standard approach. However, the number of required qubits is exponentially reduced in the number of colors. We present extensive numerical simulations demonstrating the performance of our approach. Furthermore, to explore currently available alternatives, we perform a study of random graph coloring on a quantum annealer to test the limiting factors of that approach, too.
