Video advertisement mining for predicting revenue using random forest
Shaken by the threat of financial crisis in 2008, industries began to work on the topic of predictive analytics to efficiently control inventory levels and minimize revenue risks. In this third-generation age of web-connected data, organizations emphasized the importance of data science and leveraged the data mining techniques for gaining a competitive edge. Consider the features of Web 3.0, where semantic-oriented interaction between humans and computers can offer a tailored service or product to meet consumers\u27 needs by means of learning their preferences. In this study, we concentrate on the area of marketing science to demonstrate the correlation between TV commercial advertisements and sales achievement. Through different data mining and machine-learning methods, this research will come up with one concrete and complete predictive framework to clarify the effects of word of mouth by using open data sources from YouTube. The uniqueness of this predictive model is that we adopt the sentiment analysis as one of our predictors. This research offers a preliminary study on unstructured marketing data for further business use
Learning many-body Hamiltonians with Heisenberg-limited scaling
Learning a many-body Hamiltonian from its dynamics is a fundamental problem
in physics. In this work, we propose the first algorithm to achieve the
Heisenberg limit for learning an interacting -qubit local Hamiltonian. After
a total evolution time of , the proposed algorithm
can efficiently estimate any parameter in the -qubit Hamiltonian to
-error with high probability. The proposed algorithm is robust
against state preparation and measurement error, does not require eigenstates
or thermal states, and only uses experiments.
In contrast, the best previous algorithms, such as recent works using
gradient-based optimization or polynomial interpolation, require a total
evolution time of and
experiments. Our algorithm uses ideas from quantum simulation to decouple the
unknown -qubit Hamiltonian into noninteracting patches, and learns
using a quantum-enhanced divide-and-conquer approach. We prove a matching lower
bound to establish the asymptotic optimality of our algorithm.Comment: 11 pages, 1 figure + 27-page appendi
Learning to predict arbitrary quantum processes
We present an efficient machine learning (ML) algorithm for predicting any
unknown quantum process over qubits. For a wide range of
distributions on arbitrary -qubit states, we show that this ML
algorithm can learn to predict any local property of the output from the
unknown process , with a small average error over input states
drawn from . The ML algorithm is computationally efficient even
when the unknown process is a quantum circuit with exponentially many gates.
Our algorithm combines efficient procedures for learning properties of an
unknown state and for learning a low-degree approximation to an unknown
observable. The analysis hinges on proving new norm inequalities, including a
quantum analogue of the classical Bohnenblust-Hille inequality, which we derive
by giving an improved algorithm for optimizing local Hamiltonians. Overall, our
results highlight the potential for ML models to predict the output of complex
quantum dynamics much faster than the time needed to run the process itself.Comment: 10 pages, 1 figure + 38-page appendix; v2: Added a figure and fixed a
