[docs]class VQC(NeuralNetworkClassifier): r"""A convenient Variational Quantum Classifier implementation. The variational quantum classifier (VQC) is a variational algorithm where the measured bitstrings are interpreted as the output of a classifier. Constructs a quantum circuit and corresponding neural network, then uses it to instantiate a neural network classifier. Labels can be passed in various formats, they can be plain labels, a one dimensional numpy array that contains integer labels like `[0, 1, 2, ...]`, or a numpy array with categorical string labels. One hot encoded labels are also supported. Internally, labels are transformed to one hot encoding and the classifier is always trained on one hot labels. Multi-label classification is not supported. E.g., :math:`[[1, 1, 0], [0, 1, 1], [1, 0, 1]]`.

If ``None`` is given, the number of qubits is derived from the feature map or ansatz. If neither of those is given, raises an exception. The number of qubits in the feature map and ansatz are adjusted to this number if required. feature_map: The (parametrized) circuit to be used as a feature map for the underlying QNN. If ``None`` is given, the :class:`~qiskit.circuit.library.ZZFeatureMap` is used if the number of qubits is larger than 1. For a single qubit classification problem the :class:`~qiskit.circuit.library.ZFeatureMap` is used by default. ansatz: The (parametrized) circuit to be used as an ansatz for the underlying QNN. If ``None`` is given then the :class:`~qiskit.circuit.library.RealAmplitudes` circuit is used. loss: A target loss function to be used in training. Default value is ``cross_entropy``. optimizer: An instance of an optimizer or a callable to be used in training. Refer to :class:`~qiskit_algorithms.optimizers.Minimizer` for more information on the callable protocol. When `None` defaults to :class:`~qiskit_algorithms.optimizers.SLSQP`. warm_start: Use weights from previous fit to start next fit. initial_point: Initial point for the optimizer to start from. callback: a reference to a user's callback function that has two parameters and returns ``None``. The callback can access intermediate data during training. On each iteration an optimizer invokes the callback and passes current weights as an array and a computed value as a float of the objective function being optimized. This allows to track how well optimization / training process is going on. sampler: an optional Sampler primitive instance to be used by the underlying :class:`~qiskit_machine_learning.neural_networks.SamplerQNN` neural network. If ``None`` is passed then an instance of the reference Sampler will be used. Raises: QiskitMachineLearningError: Needs at least one out of ``num_qubits``, ``feature_map`` or ``ansatz`` to be given. Or the number of qubits in the feature map and/or ansatz can't be adjusted to ``num_qubits``.
