Variational Quantum Algorithms (VQA) are promising to demonstrate quantum advantages on near-term devices. Designing ansatz, a variational circuit with parameterized gates, is of paramount importance for VQA as it lays the foundation for parameter optimizations. Due to the large noise on Noisy-Intermediate Scale Quantum (NISQ) machines, considering...

The barren plateau phenomenon is one of the main obstacles to implementing variational quantum algorithms in the current generation of quantum processors. Here, we introduce a method capable of avoiding the barren plateau phenomenon in the variational determination of the geometric measure of entanglement for a large number of qubits. The method is...

We present a method to split quantum circuits of variational quantum algorithms (VQAs) to allow for parallel training and execution, that maximally exploits the limited number of qubits in hardware to solve large problem instances. We apply this specifically to combinatorial optimization problems, where inherent structures from the problem can be i...

The negative effects caused by geometric distortion can be removed to the maximum extent possible through appropriate geometric transformations, allowing us to focus on the image content itself in subsequent processing and recognition. Therefore, geometric transformations are often used as a pre-processing step for other image processing applicatio...
