• Abstract: As quantum devices scale toward practical machine learning applications, the binary qubit paradigm faces expressivity and resource efficiency limitations. Multi-level quantum systems, or qudits, offer a promising alternative by harnessing a larger Hilbert space, enabling richer data embeddings, more compact variational circuits, and support for multi-valued problem structures. In this work, we review the role of qudits in quantum machine learning techniques, mainly variational quantum algorithms and quantum neural networks. Drawing on recent experimental demonstrations, including high-level superconducting transmons, qutrit-based combinatorial optimization, and single-qudit classifiers, we highlight how qudit architectures can reduce circuit depth and parameter counts while maintaining competitive fidelity. We further assess the evolving software ecosystem, from specialized simulators and differentiable-programming libraries to extensions of mainstream frameworks. We also identify key challenges in control complexity, noise management, and tooling maturity.

  Given a quantum circuit containing d tunable RZ gates and G-d Clifford gates, can a learner perform purely classical inference to efficiently predict its linear properties? We prove that the sample complexity scaling linearly in d is necessary and sufficient to achieve a small prediction error, while the corresponding computational complexity may scale exponentially in d. We devise a kernel-based learning model capable of trading off prediction error and computational complexity, transitioning from exponential to scaling in many practical settings.
