Predicting Properties of Quantum Systems with Conditional Generative Models (2211.16943v3)

Abstract: Machine learning has emerged recently as a powerful tool for predicting properties of quantum many-body systems. For many ground states of gapped Hamiltonians, generative models can learn from measurements of a single quantum state to reconstruct the state accurately enough to predict local observables. Alternatively, classification and regression models can predict local observables by learning from measurements on different but related states. In this work, we combine the benefits of both approaches and propose the use of conditional generative models to simultaneously represent a family of states, learning shared structures of different quantum states from measurements. The trained model enables us to predict arbitrary local properties of ground states, even for states not included in the training data, without necessitating further training for new observables. We first numerically validate our approach on 2D random Heisenberg models using simulations of up to 45 qubits. Furthermore, we conduct quantum simulations on a neutral-atom quantum computer and demonstrate that our method can accurately predict the quantum phases of square lattices of 13$\times$13 Rydberg atoms.
