Symmetric Pruning in Quantum Neural Networks. (arXiv:2208.14057v1 [quant-ph])

Many fundamental properties of a quantum system are captured by its
Hamiltonian and ground state. Despite the significance of ground states
preparation (GSP), this task is classically intractable for large-scale
Hamiltonians. Quantum neural networks (QNNs), which exert the power of modern
quantum machines, have emerged as a leading protocol to conquer this issue. As
such, how to enhance the performance of QNNs becomes a crucial topic in GSP.
Empirical evidence showed that QNNs with handcraft symmetric ansatzes generally
experience better …
