• Abstract: High-fidelity quantum dynamics emulators can be used to predict the time evolution of complex physical systems. Here, we introduce an efficient training framework for constructing machine learning-based emulators. Our approach is based on the idea of knowledge distillation and uses elements of curriculum learning. It works by constructing a set of simple, but rich-in-physics training examples (a curriculum). These examples are used by the emulator to learn the general rules describing the time evolution of a quantum system (knowledge distillation). The goal is not only to obtain high-quality predictions, but also to examine the process of how the emulator learns the physics of the underlying problem. This allows us to discover new facts about the physical system, detect symmetries, and measure relative importance of the contributing physical processes. We illustrate this approach by training an artificial neural network to predict the time evolution of quantum wave packages propagating through a potential landscape. We focus on the question of how the emulator learns the rules of quantum dynamics from the curriculum of simple training examples and to which extent it can generalize the acquired knowledge to solve more challenging cases.

  A quantum neural network is used to learn the potential energy surface and force field of molecular systems. This particular supervised learning routine allows for resource-efficient training, consisting of a simple linear regression performed on a classical computer. We have tested a setup that can be used to study molecules of any dimension and is optimized for immediate use on NISQ devices. Compared to other supervised learning routines, the proposed setup requires minimal quantum resources, making it feasible for direct implementation on quantum platforms.

At the same time, in the search for such protocols, we also refine our notion of what it means to learn quantum states.
