Connecting Quantum Computing with Classical Stochastic Simulation
Jose Blanchet, Mark S. Squillante, Mario Szegedy +1
This tutorial paper introduces quantum approaches to Monte Carlo computation with applications in computational finance. We outline the basics of quantum computing using Grover's a…
Antithetic Noise in Diffusion Models
Jing Jia, Sifan Liu, Bowen Song +3
We systematically study antithetic initial noise in diffusion models, discovering that pairing each noise sample with its negation consistently produces strong negative correlation…
CCS: Controllable and Constrained Sampling with Diffusion Models via Initial Noise Perturbation
Bowen Song, Zecheng Zhang, Zhaoxu Luo +6
Diffusion models have emerged as powerful tools for generative tasks, producing high-quality outputs across diverse domains. However, how the generated data responds to the initial…
Quantum speedup of non-linear Monte Carlo problems
Jose Blanchet, Yassine Hamoudi, Mario Szegedy +1
The mean of a random variable can be understood as a linear functional on the space of probability distributions. Quantum computing is known to provide a quadratic speedup over cla…
