Using counterdiabatic (CD) driving-aiming at suppression of diabatic transition-in digitized adiabatic evolution has garnered immense interest in quantum protocols and algorithms. However, improving the approximate CD terms with a nested commutator ansatz is a challenging task. In this work, we propose a technique of finding optimal coefficients of the CD terms using a variational quantum circuit. By classical optimization routines, the parameters of this circuit are optimized to provide the coefficients corresponding to the CD terms. Then their improved performance is exemplified in Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger state preparation on the nearest-neighbour Ising model. Finally, we also show the advantage over the usual quantum approximation optimization algorithm, in terms of fidelity with bounded time. This article is part of the theme issue 'Shortcuts to adiabaticity: theoretical, experimental and interdisciplinary perspectives'.

CA-SQBG: Cross-attention guided Siamese quantum BiGRU for drug-drug interaction extraction.

Comput Biol Med

January 2025

College of Electronic Information, Xijing University, Xi'an, China. Electronic address:

Accurate and efficient drug-drug interaction extraction (DDIE) from the medical corpus is essential for pharmacovigilance, drug therapy and drug development. To solve the problems of unbalance dataset and lack of accurate manual annotations in DDIE, a cross-attention guided Siamese quantum BiGRU (CA-SQBG) is constructed to improve feature representation learning ability for DDIE. It mainly consists of two quantum BiGRUs (QBiGRUs) and a cross-attention, where two QBiGRUs are Siamese implemented in a variational quantum environment to learn the contextual semantic feature representation of drug pairs, cross-attention is employed to learn mutual information from the Siamese QBiGRUs, which in turn allows the two modules to extract DDI more collaboratively.

Variational Quantum Algorithm for Non-Markovian Quantum Dynamics Using an Ensemble of Ehrenfest Trajectories.

Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, George Mason University, Fairfax, Virginia 22030, United States.

The simulation of non-Markovian quantum dynamics plays an important role in the understanding of charge and exciton dynamics in the condensed phase environment, yet such a simulation remains computationally expensive on classical computers. In this work, we develop a variational quantum algorithm that is capable of simulating non-Markovian quantum dynamics on quantum computers. The algorithm captures the non-Markovian effect by employing the Ehrenfest trajectories and Monte Carlo sampling of their thermal distribution.

Highly accurate real-space electron densities with neural networks.

Variational ab initio methods in quantum chemistry stand out among other methods in providing direct access to the wave function. This allows, in principle, straightforward extraction of any other observable of interest, besides the energy, but, in practice, this extraction is often technically difficult and computationally impractical. Here, we consider the electron density as a central observable in quantum chemistry and introduce a novel method to obtain accurate densities from real-space many-electron wave functions by representing the density with a neural network that captures known asymptotic properties and is trained from the wave function by score matching and noise-contrastive estimation.

The orbital-free density functional theory (OF-DFT) based method is a convenient tool to carry out electronic structure calculations scaling almost linearly with the number of electrons. However, the main impediment in the application of this method is the unavailability of the accurate form for the non-interacting kinetic energy functional in terms of electron density. The Pauli kinetic energy functional is the unknown part of the kinetic energy functional, and the corresponding Pauli potential appears in the governing Euler equation.
