FlashHead: Efficient Drop-In Replacement for the Classification Head in Language Model Inference
Wilhelm Tranheden, Shahnawaz Ahmed, Devdatt Dubhashi +2
Language models are increasingly adopting smaller architectures optimized for consumer devices. In this setting, inference efficiency is the primary constraint. Meanwhile, vocabula…

Train on classical, deploy on quantum: scaling generative quantum machine learning to a thousand qubits
Erik Recio-Armengol, Shahnawaz Ahmed, Joseph Bowles
We propose an approach to generative quantum machine learning that overcomes the fundamental scaling issues of variational quantum circuits. The core idea is to use a class of gene…

Better than classical? The subtle art of benchmarking quantum machine learning models
Joseph Bowles, Shahnawaz Ahmed, Maria Schuld
Benchmarking models via classical simulations is one of the main ways to judge ideas in quantum machine learning before noise-free hardware is available. However, the huge impact o…
