dc-qiskit-qml 0.0.3

Machine learning (quantum-)algorithms with qiskit as basis

qiskit is an open-source compilation framework capable of targeting various types of hardware and a high-performance quantum computer simulator with emulation capabilities and various compiler plug-ins.

This library implements so far one quantum machine learning classifier which has been introduced by F.Petruccione, M. Schuld and M. Fingerhuth (http://stacks.iop.org/0295-5075/119/i=6/a=60002). Athough this is the only classifier implemented so far, this library is to be used as a repository for more classifiers using qiskit as a background framework.

Features

• Distance & Majority based Hadamard-gate classifier

  • Generic real valued vector space input data (slow)

  • Binary valued vector space input data (faster)

  • Feature map pre-processing for non-linear classification

Installation

This library requires Python version 3.5 and above, as well as qiskit. Installation of this library, as well as all dependencies, can be done using pip:

$ python -m pip install dc_qiskit_aqml

To test that the algorithms are working correctly you can run

$ make test

Getting started

You can check out the classifier as follows

import numpy as np
from sklearn.datasets import load_iris
from sklearn.preprocessing import StandardScaler, Normalizer
from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split
from sklearn.pipeline import Pipeline

import qiskit

from dc_qiskit_qml.feature_maps import NormedAmplitudeEncoding
from dc_qiskit_qml.distance_based.hadamard import QmlHadamardNeighborClassifier
from dc_qiskit_qml.distance_based.hadamard.state import QmlGenericStateCircuitBuilder
from dc_qiskit_qml.distance_based.hadamard.state.sparsevector import MöttönenStatePreparation

X, y = load_iris(True)
# Only the first two features and only get two labels
# This is a toy example!
X = np.asarray([x[0:2] for x, yy in zip(X, y) if yy != 2])
y = np.asarray([yy for x, yy in zip(X, y) if yy != 2])

preprocessing_pipeline = Pipeline([
    ('scaler',  StandardScaler()),
    ('l2norm', Normalizer(norm='l2', copy=True))
])
X = preprocessing_pipeline.fit_transform(X, y)

X_train, X_test, y_train, y_test = train_test_split(X, y, test_size=0.10)

# Using the generic wave function (state vector) routine using the 'Möttönen'
# state preparation algorithm
initial_state_builder = QmlGenericStateCircuitBuilder(MöttönenStatePreparation())

# The normed amplitude encoding ensures that the data is normalized
# This is a somewhat unnecessary step as above we do that already
feature_map = NormedAmplitudeEncoding()

execution_backend: BaseBackend = qiskit.Aer.get_backend('qasm_simulator')
qml = QmlHadamardNeighborClassifier(backend=execution_backend,
                                    shots=8192,
                                    classifier_circuit_factory=initial_state_builder,
                                    feature_map=feature_map)

qml.fit(X_train, y_train)
prediction = qml.predict(X_test)

"Test Accuracy: {}".format(
    sum([1 if p == t else 0 for p, t in zip(prediction, y_test)])/len(prediction)
)

prediction_train = qml.predict(X_train)
"Train Accuracy: {}".format(
    sum([1 if p == t else 0 for p, t in zip(prediction_train, y_train)])/len(prediction_train)
)

The details are a bit more involved as to how this works and the classifier can be configured with a circuit factory or a feature map.
