| contents | Combining quantum sensing with quantum computing can lead to quantum computational sensors that are able to more efficiently extract task-specific information from physical signals than is possible otherwise. Early examples of quantum computational sensing (QCS) have largely focused on protocols where only a single sensing operation appears before measurement -- with an exception being the recent application of Grover's algorithm to signal detection. In this paper we present, in theory and numerical simulations, the application of two quantum algorithms -- quantum signal processing and quantum neural networks -- to various binary and multiclass machine-learning classification tasks in sensing. Here sensing operations are interleaved with computing operations, giving rise to nonlinear functions of the sensed signals. We have evaluated tasks based on static and time-varying signals, including spatiotemporal signals. Our approach to optimizing the circuit parameters in a QCS protocol takes into account quantum sampling noise and allows us to engineer protocols that can yield accurate results with as few as just a single measurement shot. In all cases, we have been able to show a regime of operation where a quantum computational sensor can achieve higher accuracy than a conventional quantum sensor, with a simulated accuracy advantage of $>$20 percentage points for some tasks. We also present protocols for performing nonlinear tasks using Hamiltonian-engineered bosonic systems and quantum signal processing with hybrid qubit-bosonic systems. Overall, we have shown that substantial quantum computational-sensing advantages can be obtained even if the quantum system is small, including few-qubit systems, systems comprising a single qubit and a single bosonic mode, and even just a single qubit alone -- raising the prospects for experimental proof-of-principle and practical realizations. |
