A method includes measuring an amplitude of a state of a quantum circuit, the amplitude corresponding to a first location in an object database. In the embodiment, the method includes executing, using a classical processor and a first memory, a verification operation, responsive to measuring the amplitude, to verify a target object in the first location. In the embodiment, the method includes re-measuring a second amplitude of a second state of the quantum circuit, the second amplitude having undergone a first plurality of amplitude amplifications, the second amplitude corresponding to a second location in the object database, the second location being verified as the target object, and wherein a total number of the first plurality of amplitude amplifications being less than a square root of a set of objects in the object database.
