abstract:

[Please inqure jung-wook(dot)kim(at)qmul(dot)ac(dot)uk for the zoom link] Taking advantage of mathematical similarities between grammar models and quantum theory, we present a canonical way of instantiating grammatical sentences as quantum circuits. In the context of quantum machine learning, we define toy natural language processing tasks and implement them on readily accessible quantum processors, such as those provided by IBMQ.
