Description

Abstract:
In the transformative era of quantum computing, the fusion of quantum mechanics and machine learning promises to revolutionize data-driven tasks. In this lecture, we will present the fundamental concepts of Quantum Machine Learning (QML), offering participants an understanding of its potentials and challenges. Our goal is to demystify the quantum learning algorithms that may soon underpin many technological advances. As a use case, we will highlight our recent article, 'Quantum Neural Networks Successfully Calibrate Language Models.' This work shows that parametrized variational circuits can successfully calibrate Deep Learning Q&A models, ensuring that they not only produce accurate outcomes, but also trustworthy probabilities.
