Upper bound on the Guessing probability using Machine Learning

Abstract

The estimation of the guessing probability has paramount importance in quantum cryptographic processes. It can also be used as a witness for nonlocal correlations. In most of the studied scenarios, estimating the guessing probability amounts to solving a semi-definite programme, for which potent algorithms exist. However, the size of those programs grows exponentially with the system size, becoming infeasible even for small numbers of inputs and outputs. We have implemented deep learning approaches for some relevant Bell scenarios to confront this problem. Our results show the capabilities of machine learning for estimating the guessing probability and for understanding nonlocality.
