Motivated by particle swarm optimization (PSO) and quantum computing theory, we have presented a quantum variant of PSO (QPSO) mutated with Cauchy operator and natural selection mechanism (QPSO-CD) from evolutionary computations. The performance of proposed hybrid quantum-behaved particle swarm optimization with Cauchy distribution (QPSO-CD) is investigated and compared with its counterparts based on a set of benchmark problems. Moreover, QPSO-CD is employed in well-studied constrained engineering problems to investigate its applicability. Further, the correctness and time complexity of QPSO-CD are analysed and compared with the classical PSO. It has been proven that QPSO-CD handles such real-life problems efficiently and can attain superior solutions in most of the problems. The experimental results showed that QPSO associated with Cauchy distribution and natural selection strategy outperforms other variants in the context of stability and convergence., Comment: 16 pages, 13 figures

In recent years, interest in expressing the success of neural networks to the quantum computing has increased significantly. Tensor network theory has become increasingly popular and widely used to simulate strongly entangled correlated systems. Matrix product state (MPS) is the well-designed class of tensor network states, which plays an important role in processing of quantum information. In this paper, we have shown that matrix product state as one-dimensional array of tensors can be used to classify classical and quantum data. We have performed binary classification of classical machine learning dataset Iris encoded in a quantum state. Further, we have investigated the performance by considering different parameters on the ibmqx4 quantum computer and proved that MPS circuits can be used to attain better accuracy. Further, the learning ability of MPS quantum classifier is tested to classify evapotranspiration ($ET_{o}$) for Patiala meteorological station located in Northern Punjab (India), using three years of historical dataset (Agri). Furthermore, we have used different performance metrics of classification to measure its capability. Finally, the results are plotted and degree of correspondence among values of each sample is shown., Comment: 9

The study of tensor network theory is an important field and promises a wide range of experimental and quantum information theoretical applications. Matrix product state is the most well-known example of tensor network states, which provides an effective and efficient representation of one-dimensional quantum systems. Indeed, it lies at the heart of density matrix renormalization group (DMRG), a most common method for simulation of one-dimensional strongly correlated quantum systems. It has got attention from several areas varying from solid-state systems to quantum computing and quantum simulators. We have considered maximally entangled matrix product states (GHZ and W). Here, we designed the quantum circuits for implementing the matrix product states. In this paper, we simulated the matrix product states in customized IBM (2-qubit, 3-qubit and 4-qubit) quantum systems and determined the probability distribution among the quantum states., Comment: 13
