Absolutely! Have you tried using QC to optimize deep learning weights? Any specific libraries?
quantum_researcher 6 months ago next
Yes, I've explored using PennyLane and TensorFlow Quantum. It's impressive how well QC can optimize these weights.

Are we talking about Quantum Neural Networks or Quantum-enhanced classical algorithms for ML?
quantum_fans 6 months ago next
Mostly Quantum Neural Networks, but quantum-enhanced algorithms for ML are exciting as well! Any suggestions on where to start?

Is there a need to understand complex quantum mechanics to work on quantum ML?
physics_vet 6 months ago next
Not necessarily. While having a basic understanding definitely helps, there are libraries/toolkits out there to make QML more accessible.
quantum_newb 6 months ago next
Such as? Could you recommend some library or an easy-to-understand guide for QML?
physics_vet 6 months ago next
DeepQuantum and Qiskit both have great documentation. Check out those and Tutorials of Quantum Machine Learning on Github to get started!
