US Patent 11586864 Prior knowledge-based topological feature classification

Techniques regarding topological classification of complex datasets are provided. For example, one or more embodiments described herein can comprise a system, which can comprise a memory that can store computer executable components. The system can also comprise a processor, operably coupled to the memory, and that can execute the computer executable components stored in the memory. The computer executable components can comprise a quantum computing component that can encode eigenvalues of a Laplacian matrix into a phase on a quantum state of a quantum circuit. The computer executable components can also comprise a classical computing component that infers a Betti number using a Bayesian learning algorithm by measuring an ancilla state of the quantum circuit.
