Training neural networks with universal adiabatic quantum computing
Abstract
The training of neural networks (NNs) is a computationally intensive task requiring significant time and resources. This article presents a novel approach to NN training using adiabatic quantum computing (AQC), a paradigm that leverages the principles of adiabatic evolution to solve optimization problems. We propose a universal AQC method that can be implemented on gate quantum computers, allowing for a broad range of Hamiltonians and thus enabling the training of expressive neural networks. We apply this approach to various neural networks with continuous, discrete, and binary weights. The study results indicate that AQC can very efficiently evaluate the global minimum of the loss function, offering a promising alternative to classical training methods.
