Quantum state preparation protocol for encoding classical data into the amplitudes of a quantum information processing register's wave function
Sahel Ashhab
Abstract:We present a protocol for encoding N real numbers stored in N memory registers into the amplitudes of the quantum superposition that describes the state of log 2 N qubits. This task is one of the main steps in quantum machine learning algorithms applied to classical data. The protocol combines partial CNOT gate rotations with probabilistic projection onto the desired state.The number of additional qubits, as well as the number of quantum gates, scale linearly with the number of qubits in the processing registe… Show more
