Quantum natural gradient generalised to noisy and non-unitary circuits

Variational quantum algorithms are promising tools whose efficacy depends on their optimization method. For noise-free unitary circuits, the quantum generalization of natural gradient descent has been introduced and shown to be equivalent to imaginary time evolution: the approach is effective due to...
