arXiv:2404.05108v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Gradient estimation is a central challenge in training parameterized quantum circuits (PQCs) for hybrid quantum-classical optimization and learning problems. This difficulty arises from several factors, including the exponential dimensionality of the Hilbert spaces and the information loss in quantum measurements. Existing estimators, such as finite difference and the parameter shift rule, often fail to adequately address these challenges for certain classes of PQCs. In this work, we propose a novel gradient estimation framework that le
