Representational separation between unitary and channel quantum generative models via shared classical randomness at shallow depth
Near-term quantum hardware limits circuit depth and often imposes geometrically local connectivity for quantum generative models, restricting the output distributions accessible to shallow unitary Born models. Introducing stochasticity into a unitary quantum Born model can improve the empirical generative performance of the resulting channel model and, for a restricted small-scale architecture,…
