F-Divergences and Cost Function Locality in Generative Modelling with Quantum Circuits

Chiara Leadbeater, Louis Sharrock, Brian Coyle +1

Generative modelling is an important unsupervised task in machine learning. In this work, we study a hybrid quantum-classical approach to this task, based on the use of a quantum c…

An initialization strategy for addressing barren plateaus in parametrized quantum circuits

Edward Grant, Leonard Wossnig, Mateusz Ostaszewski +1

Parametrized quantum circuits initialized with random initial parameter values are characterized by barren plateaus where the gradient becomes exponentially small in the number of…
