Preparing Quantum States by Measurement-feedback Control with Bayesian Optimization

Abstract: Preparation of quantum states is of vital importance for performing quantum computations and quantum simulations. In this work, we propose a general framework for preparing ground states of many-body systems by combining the measurement-feedback control process (MFCP) and the machine learning method. Using the Bayesian optimization (BO) strategy, the efficiency of determining the measurement and feedback operators in the MFCP is demonstrated. Taking the one dimensional Bose-Hubbard model as an example, we show that BO can generate optimal parameters, although constrained by the operator basis, which can drive the system to the low energy state with high probability in typical quantum trajectories.
