Abstract: (Elsevier B.V.)
We present a general framework for the problem of multi-class classification using classification functions that can be interpreted as fuzzy sets. We specialize these functions in the domain of Quantum-inspired classifiers, which are based on quantum state discrimination techniques. In particular, we use unsharp observables (Positive Operator-Valued Measures) that are determined by the training set of a given dataset to construct these classification functions. We show that such classifiers can be tested on near-term quantum computers once these classification functions are “distilled” (on a classical platform) from the quantum encoding of a training dataset. We compare these experimental results with their theoretical counterparts and we pose some questions for future research.- Quantum-inspired algorithms
