Structure optimization for parameterized quantum circuits
Mateusz Ostaszewski, Edward Grant, Marcello Benedetti
We propose an efficient method for simultaneously optimizing both the structure and parameter values of quantum circuits with only a small computational overhead. Shallow circuits…

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…
