Plans for the week of May 12-16

Dear all, welcome back to FYS5419/9419. This is (sadly) our last week of lectures and the plan this week is to finish the discussion on codes for quantum neural networks and then end our discussions of quantum machine learning algorithms with a discussion on quantum Boltzmann machines. This week's notes contain several coding examples and the plan is roughly to

Plan for the week of May 12-16

1. Quantum neural networks, discussion of codes, wrapping up discussions from last week (see notes from last week at https://github.com/CompPhysics/QuantumComputingMachineLearning/blob/gh-pages/doc/pub/week15/ipynb/week15.ipynb with links to videos as well)

2. Quantum Boltzmann Machines: Theory and Implementation

• Classical Boltzmann Machines (BMs)

• Restricted Quantum Boltzmann Machines (RQBM)

• Training Quantum Boltzmann Machines

• Practical Implementation with PennyLane

3. Summary of course and work on project 2

The jupyter-notebook is at https://github.com/CompPhysics/QuantumComputingMachineLearning/blob/gh-pages/doc/pub/week16/ipynb/week16.ipynb

Although our last lecture is on May 14, for those of you who are interested and have the possibility to do so, we will have our last session May 21. Then we will focus only on discussing the project. The session on May 21 starts at 215pm and ends at 6pm.

Best wishes to you all,

Morten and Odin
