Quantum@SUN Seminar/Webinar: Dr Ryan Sweke (AIMS, SU), Should we use parameterized quantum circuits for machine learning?

Should we use parameterized quantum circuits for machine learning? Abstract: Recent years have seen an incredible interest in the use of parameterized quantum circuits (PQCs) for machine learning tasks. As of yet however, it remains unclear to what extent one can use PQC based algorithms to obtain a meaningful advantage over state-of-the-art classical methods. In …
