The Born Ultimatum: Conditions for Classical Surrogation of Quantum Generative Models with Correlators

Mario Herrero-Gonzalez, Brian Coyle, Kieran McDowall +4

Quantum Circuit Born Machines (QCBMs) are powerful quantum generative models that sample according to the Born rule, with complexity-theoretic evidence suggesting potential quantum…

Variational inference with a quantum computer

Marcello Benedetti, Brian Coyle, Mattia Fiorentini +2

Inference is the task of drawing conclusions about unobserved variables given observations of related variables. Applications range from identifying diseases from symptoms to class…
