| contents | Quantum neural networks (QNNs) have shown remarkable potential due to their capability of representing complex functions within exponentially large Hilbert spaces. However, their application to multivariate regression tasks has been limited, primarily due to inherent constraints of traditional approaches that rely on Pauli expectation values. In this work, we introduce a novel and simple post-processing method utilizing log-ratio probabilities (LRPs) of quantum states, enabling efficient and unbounded multivariate regression within existing QNN architectures. Our approach exponentially expands the number of regression outputs relative to qubit count, thus significantly improving parameter and qubit efficiency. Additionally, by enhancing parameter dependencies in the cost function and leveraging gradient pumping effects from the log-ratio transformation, our method mitigates the well-known barren plateau phenomenon, thereby stabilizing training. We further demonstrate that this approach facilitates robust uncertainty quantification, capturing both epistemic and aleatoric uncertainties simultaneously. Our findings underscore the practical potential of LRP-QNNs for complex multi-output regression tasks, particularly within current resource-constrained quantum hardware environments. |
