Representation Learning with Quantum Signal Processing

作者

摘要

Representation learning begins when training changes the features that define similarity between data. A frozen-kernel model only reweights a fixed geometry. We establish quantum signal processing (QSP) as a solvable quantum model of the representation-learning regime. At arbitrary depth, we compute the exact mean and variance of its quantum neural tangent kernel, revealing an input-dependent angular geometry whose diagonal remains non-self-averaging even when the underlying unitary approaches Haar randomness. We also prove a sparse-data guarantee for the full nonlinear gradient flow without freezing or ensemble-averaging the kernel: the realized dynamics converges to an integrable scalar flow with a time-dependent kernel closure and explicit convergence times. A finite-depth speed limit holds for every data set and trajectory. At higher data density, numerical results show coupled evolution beyond both the scalar and frozen-kernel descriptions. These results give a controlled theory of learned quantum data geometry with provable training dynamics beyond the frozen limit.
