• Abstract: In this paper, we introduce an efficient algorithm for the quantum amplitude estimation task which works in noisy intermediate-scale quantum(NISQ) devices. The quantum amplitude estimation is an important problem which has various applications in fields such as quantum chemistry, machine learning, and finance. Because the well-known algorithm for the quantum amplitude estimation using the phase estimation cannot be executed in NISQ devices, alternative approaches have been proposed in recent literature. Some of them provide a proof of the upper bound which almost achieves the Heisenberg scaling. However, the constant factor is large and thus the bound is loose. Our contribution in this paper is to provide the algorithm such that the upper bound of query complexity almost achieves the Heisenberg scaling and the constant factor is small.

• Improved maximum-likelihood quantum amplitude estimation [0.0]
  Quantum estimation is a key subroutine in a number of powerful quantum algorithms, including quantum-enhanced Monte Carlo simulation and quantum machine learning. In this article, we deepen the analysis of Maximum-likelihood quantum amplitude estimation (MLQAE) to put the algorithm in a more prescriptive form, including scenarios where quantum circuit depth is limited. We then propose and numerically validate a modification to the algorithm to overcome this problem, bringing the algorithm even closer to being useful as a practical subroutine on near- and mid-term quantum hardware.

We show that, despite providing a clear reduction of quantum gate cost, the variational method in its current implementation is unlikely to lead to a quantum advantage.
