Among them, quantum data coding is the process of coding classical data into quantum States, so that the efficiency and accuracy of machine learning can be improved by using the characteristics of superposition and entanglement of quantum States. Preparation of quantum states is a process of putting qubits into the required quantum states. By controlling and operating qubits, the conversion between different quantum states can be realized, thus realizing various algorithms in machine learning. The design of quantum algorithms is the process of designing and implementing quantum algorithms, which can be optimized on quantum computers, thus achieving the purpose of machine learning.
