    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus for nonlinear calibration of quantum computing apparatus. In one aspect, elements in a set of experimental data correspond to a respective configuration of control biases for the quantum computing apparatus. An initial physical model comprising one or more model parameters of the quantum computing apparatus is defined. The model is iteratively adjusted to determine a revised physical model, where at each iteration: a set of predictive data corresponding to the set of experimental data is generated, and elements in the predictive data represent a difference between the two smallest eigenvalues of a Hamiltonian characterizing the system qubits for the previous iteration, and are dependent on at least one model parameter of the physical model for the previous iteration; and the model for the previous iteration is adjusted using the obtained experimental data and the generated set of predictive data for the iteration.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for constructing and programming quantum hardware for machine learning processes. A Quantum Statistic Machine (QSM) is described, consisting of three distinct classes of strongly interacting degrees of freedom including visible, hidden and control quantum subspaces or subsystems. The QSM is defined with a programmable non-equilibrium ergodic open quantum Markov chain with a unique attracting steady state in the space of density operators. The solution of an information processing task, such as a statistical inference or optimization task, can be encoded into the quantum statistics of an attracting steady state, where quantum inference is performed by minimizing the energy of a real or fictitious quantum Hamiltonian. The couplings of the QSM between the visible and hidden nodes may be trained to solve hard optimization or inference tasks.
