Evaluation of Parameterized Quantum Circuits: on the relation between classification accuracy, expressibility and entangling capability
Thomas Hubregtsen, Josef Pichlmeier, Patrick Stecher, Koen Bertels
An active area of investigation in the search for quantum advantage is Quantum Machine Learning. Quantum Machine Learning, and Parameterized Quantum Circuits in a hybrid quantum-classical setup in particular, could bring advancements in accuracy by utilizing the high dimensionality of the Hilbert space as feature space. But is the ability of a quantum circuit to uniformly address the Hilbert space a good indicator of classification accuracy? In our work, we use methods and quantifications from prior art to perform a numerical study in order to evaluate the level of correlation. We find a strong correlation between the ability of the circuit to uniformly address the Hilbert space and the achieved classification accuracy for circuits that entail a single embedding layer followed by 1 or 2 circuit designs. This is based on our study encompassing 19 circuits in both 1 and 2 layer configuration, evaluated on 9 datasets of increasing difficulty. Future work will evaluate if this holds for different circuit designs.
