Quantum discriminant analysis for dimensionality reduction and classification

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: We present quantum algorithms to efficiently perform discriminant analysis for dimensionality reduction and classification over an exponentially large input data set. Compared with the best-known classical algorithms, the quantum algorithms show an exponential speedup in both the number of training vectors M and the feature space dimension N. We generalize the previous quantum algorithm for solving systems of linear equations [Phys. Rev. Lett. 103, 150502 (2009)] to efficiently implement a Hermitian chain product of k trace-normalized NimesN Hermitian positive-semidefinite matrices with time complexity of O(log(N)). Using this result, we perform linear as well as nonlinear Fisher discriminant analysis for dimensionality reduction over M vectors, each in an N-dimensional feature space, in time O(pextpolylog(MN)/epsilon3), where epsilon denotes the tolerance error, and p is the number of principal projection directions desired. We also present a quantum discriminant analysis algorithm for data classification with time complexity O(log(MN)/epsilon3).
