A Quantum-Inspired Dequantization Method for Diagonally Weighted Matrix Functions: Application to Learning with Optimized Random Features

Read the original on arXiv Machine Learning →

The paper introduces a classical algorithm that dequantizes a quantum sampler used for learning with optimized random features. By sampling heavy indices and reducing the transformation to a small principal block, the method produces a sparse classical representation with operator‑norm guarantees. This approach enables a classical sampler with specified accuracy and polynomial runtime, demonstrating that quantum block‑encoding factorizations can provide sufficient classical structure even when direct sampling access to the composite matrix is unavailable.

Towards Surrogate Based Dequantization of Quantum Reinforcement Learning

The paper investigates whether quantum reinforcement learning algorithms can be matched by efficient classical methods. It focuses on a simplified reinforcement learning setting with a uniform generative model, providing finite‑sample guarantees for classical kernelized Fitted Q‑Iteration that uses kernels aligned with parameterized quantum circuits. The authors identify sufficient conditions on data encoding, kernel choice, and problem structure under which this classical approach dequantizes quantum Q‑learning, and suggest using kernelized Fitted Q‑Iteration as a heuristic when those conditions cannot be verified.

Is data-efficient learning feasible with quantum models?

arXiv:2508. 19437v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The importance of analyzing nontrivial datasets when testing quantum machine learning (QML) models is becoming increasingly prominent in literature, yet a cohesive framework for understanding dataset characteristics remains elusive.
