Description
Summary:The paradigm of Quantum computing and artificial intelligence has been growing steadily in recent years and given the potential of this technology by recognizing the computer as a physical system that can take advantage of quantum mechanics for solving problems faster, more efficiently, and accurately. We suggest experimentation of this potential through an architecture of different quantum models computed in parallel. In this work, we present encouraging results of how it is possible to use Quantum Processing Units analogically to Graphics Processing Units to accelerate algorithms and improve the performance of machine learning models through three experiments. The first experiment was a reproduction of a parity function, allowing us to see how the convergence of a given Quantum model is influenced significantly by computing it in parallel. For the second and third experiments, we implemented an image classification problem by training quantum neural networks and using pre-trained models to compare their performances with the same experiments carried out with parallel quantum computations. We obtained very similar results in the accuracies, which were close to 100% and significantly improved the execution time, approximately 15 times faster in the best-case scenario. We also propose an alternative as a proof of concept to address emotion recognition problems using optimization algorithms and how execution times can be positively affected by parallel quantum computation. To do this, we use tools such as the cross-platform software library PennyLane and Amazon Web Services to access high-end simulators with Amazon Braket and IBM quantum experience.
