contents Ridge functions are used to describe and study the lower bound of the approximation done by the neural networks which can be written as a linear combination of activation functions. If the activation functions are also ridge functions, these networks are called explainable neural networks. In this brief paper, we first show that quantum neural networks which are based on variational quantum circuits can be written as a linear combination of ridge functions by following matrix notations. Consequently, we show that the interpretability and explainability of such quantum neural networks can be directly considered and studied as an approximation with the linear combination of ridge functions.
