Abstract:
Autoencoder has emerged to be a new to design end-to-end communication systems. It replaces traditional channel coding, modulation and signal processing modules with neural networks and therefore does not rely on model information of a specific communications system. However, it requires a large number of parameters to optimize, and its complexity increases quickly with the size of the input messages. In this talk, I will introduce a hybrid quantum-classical autoencoder that incorporates quantum neural networks in the original autoencoder structure. Through extensive evaluations, we observe that the new hybrid quantum-classical autoencoder can reduce the number of parameters by almost half, while still achieving similar or better block error rate, and therefore provides a low-complexity and more scalable autoencoder structure.
