Definition
Neural network quantum states utilize deep learning techniques to approximate complex quantum wavefunctions. By treating neural network weights as parameters optimizing the probability amplitudes of quantum configurations, researchers can solve many-body problems efficiently. This intersection allows for the simulation of quantum systems that are intractable for classical computers, leveraging the expressive power of neural networks.
