SUMMARY:Quantum Lunch Series Event - Speaker Milad Marvian
DESCRIPTION:Talk Title: Quantum Earth Mover’s Distance: A New Approach to Learning Quantum Data \nSpeaker: Professor Milad Marvian\, University of New Mexico \nMilad Marvian is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering at the University of New Mexico and also a member of the Center for Quantum Information and Control (CQuIC). He completed his Ph.D. in 2018 at the University of Southern California and before joining UNM was a postdoctoral associate at MIT. His research interest includes quantum algorithms and quantum machine learning\, quantum error correction\, and open quantum systems. \nAbstract:\nIn this talk\, I will introduce a generalization of the earth mover’s distance to the set of quantum states. The proposed distance recovers the Hamming distance for the vectors of the canonical basis\, and more generally the classical earth mover’s distance for quantum states diagonal in the canonical basis. I will discuss some desirable properties of this distance\, including a continuity bound for the von Neumann entropy and its insensitivity to local perturbations\, and I will show how these properties make the distance suitable for learning quantum data using quantum generative adversarial networks\nBased on https://arxiv.org/abs/2009.04469 and https://arxiv.org/abs/2101.03037. \n  \nThis is a Virtual Event. \nFor more information email: \nquantumcomputing@ncsu.edu
