Seminar: Generative training of quantum Boltzmann machines with hidden units

Event Information:

We provide the first method for fully quantum generative training of quantum Boltzmann machines with both visible and hidden units while using quantum relative entropy as an objective. This is significant because prior methods were not able to do so due to mathematical challenges posed by the gradient evaluation. We present two novel methods for solving this problem.
