Watson Research Center, Yorktown Heights, NY 10598  \nQuantum machine learning is arguably one of the most explored applications of near-term quantum devices. Much focus has been put on notions of variational quantum machine learning where parameterized quantum circuits (PQCs) are used as learning models. These PQC models have a rich structure which suggests that they might be amenable to efficient dequantization via random Fourier features (RFF) .  \nIn this work, we establish necessary and sufficient conditions under which RFF does indeed provide an efficient dequantization of variational quantum machine learning for regression. We build on these insights to make concrete suggestions for PQC architecture design, and to identify structures which are necessary for a regression problem to admit a potential quantum advantage via PQC based optimization.  \n1 Introduction  \nIn recent years, the technique of using parameterized quantum circuits (PQCs) to define a model class, which is then optimized over via a classical optimizer, has emerged as one of the primary methods of using near-term quantum devices for machine learning tasks [CAB+21; BLS+19] . We will refer to this approach as variational quantum machine learning (variational QML), although it is often also referred to as hybrid quantum/classical optimization. While a large amount of effort has been invested in both understanding the theoretical properties of variational QML, and experimenting on trial datasets, it remains unclear whether variational QML on near-term quantum devices can offer any meaningful advantages over state-of-the-art classical methods.  \nOne approach to answering this question is via dequantization. In this context, the idea is to use insights into the structure of PQCs, and the model classes that they define, to design quantuminspired classical methods which can be proven to match the performance of variational QML. Ultimately, the goal is to understand when and why variational QML can be dequantized, in order to better identify the PQC architectures, optimization algorithms and problem types for which one might obtain a meaningful quantum advantage via variational QML.  \nIn order to discuss notions of dequantization of variational QML, we note that for typical applications variational QML consists of two distinct phases. Namely, a training stage and an  \nAccepted in  2024-07-10, click title to verify. Published under CC-BY 4 .0. 1  \ninference stage. In the training stage, one uses the available training data to identify an optimal PQC model, and in the inference stage one uses the identified model to make predictions on previously unseen data, or in the case of generative modelling, to generate new samples from the unknown data distribution.  \nA variety of works have recently proposed dequantization methods for inference with PQC models. The first such work was Ref. [SEM23], which used insights into the functional analytic structure of PQC model classes to show that, given a trained quantum model, one can sometimes efficiently extract a purely classical model – referred to as a classical surrogate – which performs inference just as well as the PQC model.
