How to Compile A Quantum Bayesian Net
نویسنده
چکیده
We show how to express the information contained in a Quantum Bayesian (QB) net as a product of unitary matrices. If each of these unitary matrices is expressed as a sequence of elementary operations (operations such as controlled-nots and qubit rotations), then the result is a sequence of operations that can be used to run a quantum computer. QB nets have been run entirely on a classical computer, but one expects them to run faster on a quantum computer.

Quantum Computer as a Probabilistic Inference Engine
We propose a new class of quantum computing algorithms which generalize many standard ones. The goal of our algorithms is to estimate probability distributions. Such estimates are useful in, for example, applications of Decision Theory and Artificial Intelligence, where inferences are made based on uncertain knowledge. The class of algorithms that we propose is based on a construction method th...
متن کاملBayesian Quantile Regression with Adaptive Elastic Net Penalty for Longitudinal Data
Longitudinal studies include the important parts of epidemiological surveys, clinical trials and social studies. In longitudinal studies, measurement of the responses is conducted repeatedly through time. Often, the main goal is to characterize the change in responses over time and the factors that influence the change. Recently, to analyze this kind of data, quantile regression has been taken ...

We propose a new family of quantum computing algorithms which generalize the Deutsch-Jozsa, Simon and Shor ones. The goal of our algorithms is to estimate conditional probability distributions. Such estimates are useful in applications of Decision Theory and Artificial Intelligence, where inferences are made based on uncertain knowledge. The family of algorithms that we propose is based on a co...
متن کاملQuantum Information Theory - A Quantum Bayesian Net Perspective
The main goal of this paper is to give a pedagogical introduction to Quantum Information Theory—to do this in a new way, using network diagrams called Quantum Bayesian Nets. A lesser goal of the paper is to propose a few new ideas, such as associating with each quantum Bayesian net a very useful density matrix that we call the meta density matrix.
متن کاملA latent-mixture quantum probability model of causal reasoning within a Bayesian inference framework
We develop a quantum probability model that can account for situations where people’s causal judgments violate the properties of causal Bayes nets and demonstrate how the parameters of our model can be interpreted to provide information about underlying cognitive processes. We implement this model within a hierarchical Bayesian inference framework that allows us to systematically identify indiv...
