Estimation of one-dimensional discrete-time quantum walk parameters by using machine learning algorithms

Estimation of the coin parameter(s) is an important part of the problem of implementing more robust schemes for quantum simulation using quantum walks. We present the estimation of the quantum coin parameter used for one-dimensional discrete-time quantum walk evolution using machine learning algorithms on their probability distributions. We show that the models we have implemented are able to estimate these evolution parameters to a good accuracy level. We also implement a deep learning model that is able to predict multiple parameters simultaneously. Since discrete-time quantum walks can be used as quantum simulators, these models become important when extrapolating the quantum walk parameters from the probability distributions of the quantum system that is being simulated.
