Superconducting circuit technologies have recently achieved quantum protocols
involving closed feedback loops. Quantum artificial intelligence and quantum
machine learning are emerging fields inside quantum technologies which may
enable quantum devices to acquire information from the outer world and improve
themselves via a learning process. Here we propose the implementation of basic
protocols in quantum reinforcement learning, with superconducting circuits
employing feedback-loop control. We introduce diverse scenarios for
proof-of-principle experiments with state-of-the-art superconducting circuit
technologies and analyze their feasibility in presence of imperfections. The
field of quantum artificial intelligence implemented with superconducting
circuits paves the way for enhanced quantum control and quantum computation
protocols.Comment: Published versio
