TL;DR: In this work, for the 1st time, we enable Quantum Graph Neural Networks with complicate graph data on a single qubit.
Abstract: In the present NISQ era, quantum machine learning encounters significant challenges in realizing practical implementations due to constrained resources. Recently, a novel single qubit methodology enabled the execution of numerous operations on a single qubit. However, the applicability of this approach to more intricate neural network architectures remains uncertain. In this study, we investigate graph data, which poses inherent challenges for machine learning due to its intricate structure. Through the utilization of quantum walk, we introduce a graph embedding approach to reduce network parameters, culminating in the design of a novel single-qubit Quantum Graph Neural Network (sQGNN) architecture. Our experimental assessments encompass both simulations and practical executions on quantum computers, revealing that the devised sQGNNs adeptly adapt to graphs of varying dimensions and compositions. Consequently, these single-qubit QGNNs make efficient use of limited qubit resources, paving the way for the realization of expansive quantum graph neural networks on resource-constrained Variational Quantum Circuits (VQCs). This breakthrough opens up new possibilities for practical applications within the current NISQ regime.
