Quantum mixed state compiling

Zoë Holmes

The task of learning a quantum circuit to prepare a given mixed state is a fundamental quantum subroutine. We present a variational quantum algorithm (VQA) to learn mixed states which is suitable for near-term hardware. Our algorithm represents a generaliz ...

Localizing Unsynchronized Sensors With Unknown Sources

Ivan Dokmanic, Dalia Salem Hassan Fahmy El Badawy

We propose a method for sensor array self-localization using a set of sources at unknown locations. The sources produce signals whose times of arrival are registered at the sensors. We look at the general case where neither the emission times of the source ...

Flow Time Scheduling and Prefix Beck-Fiala

Ola Nils Anders Svensson, Lars Rohwedder

We relate discrepancy theory with the classic scheduling problems of minimizing max flow time and total flow time on unrelated machines. Specifically, we give a general reduction that allows us to transfer discrepancy bounds in the prefix Beck-Fiala (bound ...

Deep Boltzmann Machines: Rigorous Results at Arbitrary Depth

Emanuele Mingione, Diego Alberici

A class of deep Boltzmann machines is considered in the simplified framework of a quenched system with Gaussian noise and independent entries. The quenched pressure of a K-layers spin glass model is studied allowing interactions only among consecutive laye ...

Convex Combination of Diffusion Strategies Over Networks

Ali H. Sayed, Jie Chen

Combining diffusion strategies with complementary properties enables enhanced performance when they can be run simultaneously. In this article, we first propose two schemes for the convex combination of two diffusion strategies, namely, the power-normalize ...

Affine Combination of Diffusion Strategies Over Networks

Ali H. Sayed, Jie Chen

Diffusion adaptation is a powerful strategy for distributed estimation and learning over networks. Motivated by the concept of combining adaptive filters, this work proposes a combination framework that aggregates the operation of multiple diffusion strate ...

Functional Inverse Problems on Spheres: Theory, Algorithms and Applications

Matthieu Martin Jean-André Simeoni

Many scientific inquiries in natural sciences involve approximating a spherical field -namely a scalar quantity defined over a continuum of directions- from generalised samples of the latter (e.g. directional samples, local averages, etc). Such an approxim ...

A non-intrusive multifidelity method for the reduced order modeling of nonlinear problems

Jan Sickmann Hesthaven, Mariella Kast, Mengwu Guo

We propose a non-intrusive reduced basis (RB) method for parametrized nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs) that leverages models of different accuracy. From a collection of low-fidelity (LF) snapshots, parameter locations are extracted for the e ...

Characterising Structure and Stability of Materials using Machine Learning

Andrea Anelli

The search of novel materials using in-silico high-throughput screening is emerging as a fundamental step in the pipeline of materials discovery, but its low yields in terms of synthesisable structures limit its effectiveness. In order to isolate configura ...

Measurement of Displacement and Its Derivatives from a Phase Fringe Pattern

Pramod Rastogi, Rishikesh Dilip Kulkarni

Noting the fact that the phase and phase derivatives carry the information on the mechanical deformation in optical interferometric measurements techniques, we propose a noise robust fringe analysis technique for the simultaneous estimation of unwrapped ph ...
