Torch Connector and Hybrid QNNs

This tutorial introduces the TorchConnector class, and demonstrates how it allows for a natural integration of any NeuralNetwork from Qiskit Machine Learning into a PyTorch workflow. TorchConnector takes a NeuralNetwork and makes it available as a PyTorch Module. The resulting module can be seamlessly incorporated into PyTorch classical architectures and trained jointly without additional considerations, enabling the development and testing of novel hybrid quantum-classical machine learning architectures.

Part 1: Simple Classification & Regression

1. Classification

First, we show how TorchConnector allows to train a Quantum NeuralNetwork to solve a classification tasks using PyTorch’s automatic differentiation engine. In order to illustrate this, we will perform binary classification on a randomly generated dataset.

[2]:
# Generate random dataset

# Select dataset dimension (num_inputs) and size (num_samples)
num_inputs = 2
num_samples = 20

# Generate random input coordinates (X) and binary labels (y)
X = 2 * algorithm_globals.random.random([num_samples, num_inputs]) - 1
y01 = 1 * (np.sum(X, axis=1) >= 0)  # in { 0,  1}, y01 will be used for SamplerQNN example
y = 2 * y01 - 1  # in {-1, +1}, y will be used for EstimatorQNN example

# Convert to torch Tensors
X_ = Tensor(X)
y01_ = Tensor(y01).reshape(len(y)).long()
y_ = Tensor(y).reshape(len(y), 1)

# Plot dataset
for x, y_target in zip(X, y):
    if y_target == 1:
        plt.plot(x[0], x[1], "bo")
    else:
        plt.plot(x[0], x[1], "go")
plt.plot([-1, 1], [1, -1], "--", color="black")

A. Classification with PyTorch and EstimatorQNN

Linking an EstimatorQNN to PyTorch is relatively straightforward. Here we illustrate this by using the EstimatorQNN constructed from a feature map and an ansatz.

[3]:
# Set up a circuit
feature_map = ZZFeatureMap(num_inputs)
ansatz = RealAmplitudes(num_inputs)
qc = QuantumCircuit(num_inputs)
qc.compose(feature_map, inplace=True)
qc.compose(ansatz, inplace=True)
qc.draw(output="mpl", style="clifford")

# Setup QNN
qnn1 = EstimatorQNN(
    circuit=qc, input_params=feature_map.parameters, weight_params=ansatz.parameters
)

# Set up PyTorch module
# Note: If we don't explicitly declare the initial weights
# they are chosen uniformly at random from [-1, 1].
initial_weights = 0.1 * (2 * algorithm_globals.random.random(qnn1.num_weights) - 1)
model1 = TorchConnector(qnn1, initial_weights=initial_weights)
print("Initial weights: ", initial_weights)
Initial weights:  [-0.01256962  0.06653564  0.04005302 -0.03752667  0.06645196  0.06095287

Optimizer

The choice of optimizer for training any machine learning model can be crucial in determining the success of our training’s outcome. When using TorchConnector, we get access to all of the optimizer algorithms defined in the [torch.optim] package (link). Some of the most famous algorithms used in popular machine learning architectures include Adam, SGD, or Adagrad. However, for this tutorial we will be using the L-BFGS algorithm (torch.optim.LBFGS), one of the most well know second-order optimization algorithms for numerical optimization.

Loss Function

As for the loss function, we can also take advantage of PyTorch’s pre-defined modules from torch.nn, such as the Cross-Entropy or Mean Squared Error losses.

💡 Clarification : In classical machine learning, the general rule of thumb is to apply a Cross-Entropy loss to classification tasks, and MSE loss to regression tasks. However, this recommendation is given under the assumption that the output of the classification network is a class probability value in the \([0, 1]\) range (usually this is achieved through a Softmax layer). Because the following example for EstimatorQNN does not include such layer, and we don’t apply any mapping to the output (the following section shows an example of application of parity mapping with SamplerQNNs), the QNN’s output can take any value in the range \([-1, 1]\). In case you were wondering, this is the reason why this particular example uses MSELoss for classification despite it not being the norm (but we encourage you to experiment with different loss functions and see how they can impact training results).

[6]:
# Define optimizer and loss
optimizer = LBFGS(model1.parameters())
f_loss = MSELoss(reduction="sum")

# Start training
model1.train()  # set model to training mode


# Note from (https://pytorch.org/docs/stable/optim.html):
# Some optimization algorithms such as LBFGS need to
# reevaluate the function multiple times, so you have to
# pass in a closure that allows them to recompute your model.
# The closure should clear the gradients, compute the loss,
# and return it.
def closure():
    optimizer.zero_grad()  # Initialize/clear gradients
    loss = f_loss(model1(X_), y_)  # Evaluate loss function

B. Classification with PyTorch and SamplerQNN

Linking a SamplerQNN to PyTorch requires a bit more attention than EstimatorQNN. Without the correct setup, backpropagation is not possible.

In particular, we must make sure that we are returning a dense array of probabilities in the network’s forward pass (sparse=False). This parameter is set up to False by default, so we just have to make sure that it has not been changed.

⚠️ Attention: If we define a custom interpret function ( in the example: parity), we must remember to explicitly provide the desired output shape ( in the example: 2). For more info on the initial parameter setup for SamplerQNN, please check out the official qiskit documentation.

[8]:
# Define feature map and ansatz
feature_map = ZZFeatureMap(num_inputs)
ansatz = RealAmplitudes(num_inputs, entanglement="linear", reps=1)

# Define quantum circuit of num_qubits = input dim
# Append feature map and ansatz
qc = QuantumCircuit(num_inputs)
qc.compose(feature_map, inplace=True)
qc.compose(ansatz, inplace=True)

# Define SamplerQNN and initial setup
parity = lambda x: "{:b}".format(x).count("1") % 2  # optional interpret function
output_shape = 2  # parity = 0, 1
qnn2 = SamplerQNN(
    circuit=qc,
    input_params=feature_map.parameters,
    weight_params=ansatz.parameters,
    interpret=parity,
    output_shape=output_shape,
)

# Set up PyTorch module
# Reminder: If we don't explicitly declare the initial weights
# they are chosen uniformly at random from [-1, 1].
initial_weights = 0.1 * (2 * algorithm_globals.random.random(qnn2.num_weights) - 1)
print("Initial weights: ", initial_weights)
model2 = TorchConnector(qnn2, initial_weights)

2. Regression

We use a model based on the EstimatorQNN to also illustrate how to perform a regression task. The chosen dataset in this case is randomly generated following a sine wave.

[11]:
# Generate random dataset

num_samples = 20
eps = 0.2
lb, ub = -np.pi, np.pi
f = lambda x: np.sin(x)

X = (ub - lb) * algorithm_globals.random.random([num_samples, 1]) + lb
y = f(X) + eps * (2 * algorithm_globals.random.random([num_samples, 1]) - 1)
plt.plot(np.linspace(lb, ub), f(np.linspace(lb, ub)), "r--")
plt.plot(X, y, "bo")
plt.show()
../_images/tutorials_05_torch_connector_20_0.png

A. Regression with PyTorch and EstimatorQNN

The network definition and training loop will be analogous to those of the classification task using EstimatorQNN. In this case, we define our own feature map and ansatz, but let’s do it a little different.

[12]:
# Construct simple feature map
param_x = Parameter("x")
feature_map = QuantumCircuit(1, name="fm")
feature_map.ry(param_x, 0)

# Construct simple parameterized ansatz
param_y = Parameter("y")
ansatz = QuantumCircuit(1, name="vf")
ansatz.ry(param_y, 0)

qc = QuantumCircuit(1)
qc.compose(feature_map, inplace=True)
qc.compose(ansatz, inplace=True)

# Construct QNN
qnn3 = EstimatorQNN(circuit=qc, input_params=[param_x], weight_params=[param_y])

# Set up PyTorch module
# Reminder: If we don't explicitly declare the initial weights
# they are chosen uniformly at random from [-1, 1].
initial_weights = 0.1 * (2 * algorithm_globals.random.random(qnn3.num_weights) - 1)
model3 = TorchConnector(qnn3, initial_weights)
/tmp/ipykernel_4307/3970866756.py:16: DeprecationWarning: V1 Primitives are deprecated as of qiskit-machine-learning 0.8.0 and will be removed no sooner than 4 months after the release date. Use V2 primitives for continued compatibility and support.
  qnn3 = EstimatorQNN(circuit=qc, input_params=[param_x], weight_params=[param_y])

Part 2: MNIST Classification, Hybrid QNNs

In this second part, we show how to leverage a hybrid quantum-classical neural network using TorchConnector, to perform a more complex image classification task on the MNIST handwritten digits dataset.

For a more detailed (pre-TorchConnector) explanation on hybrid quantum-classical neural networks, you can check out the corresponding section in the Qiskit Textbook repository.

Step 1: Defining Data-loaders for train and test

We take advantage of the torchvision API to directly load a subset of the MNIST dataset and define torch DataLoaders (link) for train and test.

[16]:
# Train Dataset

# Set train shuffle seed (for reproducibility)
manual_seed(42)

batch_size = 1
n_samples = 100  # We will concentrate on the first 100 samples

    root="./data", train=True, download=True, transform=transforms.Compose([transforms.ToTensor()])
)

# Filter out labels (originally 0-9), leaving only labels 0 and 1
idx = np.append(
    np.where(X_train.targets == 0)[0][:n_samples], np.where(X_train.targets == 1)[0][:n_samples]
)
X_train.data = X_train.data[idx]
X_train.targets = X_train.targets[idx]

# Define torch dataloader with filtered data
train_loader = DataLoader(X_train, batch_size=batch_size, shuffle=True)

If we perform a quick visualization we can see that the train dataset consists of images of handwritten 0s and 1s.

Step 2: Defining the QNN and Hybrid Model

This second step shows the power of the TorchConnector. After defining our quantum neural network layer (in this case, a EstimatorQNN), we can embed it into a layer in our torch Module by initializing a torch connector as TorchConnector(qnn).

⚠️ Attention: In order to have an adequate gradient backpropagation in hybrid models, we MUST set the initial parameter input_gradients to TRUE during the qnn initialization.

Step 3: Training

# Define model, optimizer, and loss function
optimizer = optim.Adam(model4.parameters(), lr=0.001)
loss_func = NLLLoss()

# Start training
epochs = 10  # Set number of epochs
loss_list = []  # Store loss history
model4.train()  # Set model to training mode

for epoch in range(epochs):
    total_loss = []
    for batch_idx, (data, target) in enumerate(train_loader):
        optimizer.zero_grad(set_to_none=True)  # Initialize gradient
        output = model4(data)  # Forward pass
        loss = loss_func(output, target)  # Calculate loss
        loss.backward()  # Backward pass
        optimizer.step()  # Optimize weights
        total_loss.append(loss.item())  # Store loss
    loss_list.append(sum(total_loss) / len(total_loss))
    print("Training [{:.0f}%]\tLoss: {:.4f}".format(100.0 * (epoch + 1) / epochs, loss_list[-1]))

Now we’ll save the trained model, just to show how a hybrid model can be saved and re-used later for inference. To save and load hybrid models, when using the TorchConnector, follow the PyTorch recommendations of saving and loading the models.

[23]:
torch.save(model4.state_dict(), "model4.pt")

Step 4: Evaluation

We start from recreating the model and loading the state from the previously saved file. You create a QNN layer using another simulator or a real hardware. So, you can train a model on real hardware available on the cloud and then for inference use a simulator or vice verse. For a sake of simplicity we create a new quantum neural network in the same way as above.

/tmp/ipykernel_4307/2057927024.py:3: FutureWarning: You are using `torch.load` with `weights_only=False` (the current default value), which uses the default pickle module implicitly. It is possible to construct malicious pickle data which will execute arbitrary code during unpickling (See https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/blob/main/SECURITY.md#untrusted-models for more details). In a future release, the default value for `weights_only` will be flipped to `True`. This limits the functions that could be executed during unpickling. Arbitrary objects will no longer be allowed to be loaded via this mode unless they are explicitly allowlisted by the user via `torch.serialization.add_safe_globals`. We recommend you start setting `weights_only=True` for any use case where you don't have full control of the loaded file. Please open an issue on GitHub for any issues related to this experimental feature.
