  • Publication number: 20240169231
    Abstract: A method includes executing a quantum circuit to determine a first quantum circuit output and a gradient based on a set of input parameters. The method includes providing the quantum circuit with an updated set of input parameters to determine a second quantum circuit output, where the updated set of input parameters is determined based on the gradient and the set of input parameters. The method further includes determining a comparison value based on a learning rate parameter, the first quantum circuit output, and the second quantum circuit output and updating the learning rate parameter such that the comparison value satisfies a threshold. The method further includes updating parameters of the plurality of quantum logic gates based on the updated learning rate parameter.
