Advances in Quantum Reinforcement Learning

Understand

In recent times, there has been much interest in quantum enhancements of machine learning, specifically in the context of data mining and analysis.

• Reinforcement learning, an interactive form of learning, is, in turn, vital in artificial intelligence-type applications.
• Also in this case, quantum mechanics was shown to be useful, in certain instances.
• Here, we elucidate these results, and show that quantum enhancements can be achieved in a new setting: the setting of learning models which learn how to improve themselves -- that is, those that meta-learn.
