TI - Supervised learning with quantum computers T2 - / edited by Raymond Laflamme SN - 9783319964232 U1 - 006.31 PY - 2018/// CY - Switzerland PB - Springer KW - Pattern recognition KW - Quantum physics (quantum mechanics &​ quantum field theory) N2 - Quantum machine learning investigates how quantum computers can be used for data-driven prediction and decision making. The books summarises and conceptualises ideas of this relatively young discipline for an audience of computer scientists and physicists from a graduate level upwards. It aims at providing a starting point for those new to the field, showcasing a toy example of a quantum machine learning algorithm and providing a detailed introduction of the two parent disciplines. For more advanced readers, the book discusses topics such as data encoding into quantum states, quantum algorithms and routines for inference and optimisation, as well as the construction and analysis of genuine ``quantum learning models''. A special focus lies on supervised learning, and applications for near-term quantum devices ER -
