• Title: The Effects of Quantum Randomness on a System Exhibiting Computational Creativity
• Authors: Azlan Iqbal
• Abstract summary: We present experimental results on the effects of using quantum or 'truly' random numbers, as opposed to pseudorandom numbers, in a system that exhibits computational creativity. The results indicate that using quantum random numbers too often or too seldom in the composing process does not have any positive effect on the output generated. There is a'sweet spot' of using quantum random numbers 15% of the time that results in fewer statistical outliers.

• Abstract: We present experimental results on the effects of using quantum or 'truly' random numbers, as opposed to pseudorandom numbers, in a system that exhibits computational creativity (given its ability to compose original chess problems). The results indicate that using quantum random numbers too often or too seldom in the composing process does not have any positive effect on the output generated. Interestingly, there is a 'sweet spot' of using quantum random numbers 15% of the time that results in fewer statistical outliers. Overall, it would appear that there may indeed be a slight advantage to using quantum random numbers in such a system and this may also be true in other systems that exhibit computational creativity. The benefits of doing so should, however, be weighed against the overhead of obtaining quantum random numbers in contrast to a pseudorandom number generator that is likely more convenient to incorporate.

  We quantify the performances of quantum machine learning in the landscape of quantum data. We find that the training efficiency and generalization capabilities in quantum machine learning will be exponentially suppressed with the increase in qubits. Our findings apply to both the quantum kernel method and the large-width limit of quantum neural networks.

  We present a no-go theorem for the distinguishability between quantum random numbers (i.e., random numbers generated quantum mechanically) and pseudo-random numbers (i.e., random numbers generated algorithmically) The theorem states that one cannot distinguish these two types of random numbers if the quantum random numbers are efficiently classically simulatable and the randomness measure used for the distinction is efficiently computable.
