Evolving Quantum Circuits using Genetic Programming (2000) [8 citations — 0 self]
Abstract:
This paper presents a new representation and corresponding set of genetic operators for a scheme to evolve quantum circuits with various properties. The scheme is a variant on the techniques of genetic programming and genetic algorithms, having components borrowed from each. By recognising the foundation of a quantum circuit as being a collection of gates, each operating on various categories of qubits and each taking parameters, the scheme can successfully search for most circuits. The algorithm is applied to the problem of entanglement production.
