Running the Dual-PQC GAN on noisy simulators and real quantum hardware

Su Yeon Chang, Edwin Agnew, Elías F. Combarro et al.

In an earlier work, we introduced dual-Parameterized Quantum Circuit (PQC) Generative Adversarial Networks (GAN), an advanced prototype of a quantum GAN. We applied the model on a realistic High-Energy Physics (HEP) use case: the exact theoretical simulation of a calorimeter response with a reduced problem size. This paper explores the dual- PQC GAN for a more practical usage by testing its performance in the presence of different types of quantum noise, which are the major obstacles to overcome for successful deployment using near-term quantum devices. The results propose the possibility of running the model on current real hardware, but improvements are still required in some areas.
