1Reliability
If quantum variational circuits use traditional parameter optimization methods, then they can determine optimal rotational parameters for molecular geometries, but the high-dimensional non-convex search space leads to significant errors and unreliable convergence
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies preliminary action by using parameter extrapolation from known molecular geometries to predict starting parameters for nearby geometries. This pre-positioning of parameters in the vicinity of optimal values before the variational optimization begins reduces the effective search space and improves convergence reliability in the high-dimensional non-convex parameter space.
2Measurement precision
If quantum variational circuits perform full parameter optimization, then optimal parameter sets are obtained, but the number of evaluations required is excessive, reducing processing efficiency
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements feedback by using the optimal parameters from previously solved molecular geometries to inform and initialize the optimization for new geometries. This feedback mechanism through parameter extrapolation reduces the number of evaluations needed by starting closer to the optimal solution, thereby improving processing efficiency while maintaining optimization precision.
