- Abstract: Quantum computing is in its early stage of implementation. Its capacity has
been growing in the last years but its application in several fields of
sciences is still restricted to oversimplified problems. In this stage, it is
important to identify the situations where quantum computing presents the most
promising results to be prepared when the technology is ready to be deployed.
The geophysics field has several areas which are limited by the current
computation capability, among them the so-called seismic inversion is one of
the most important ones, which are strong candidates to benefit from quantum
computing. In this work, we implement an approach for traveltime seismic
inversion through a near-term quantum algorithm based on gradient-free quantum
circuit learning. We demonstrate that a quantum computer with thousands of
qubits, even if noisy, can solve geophysical problems. In addition, we compared
the convergence of the method with the variational quantum algorithms.
