Abstract
In a general aspect, input data for a computer process are preprocessed by a preprocessor unit that includes a quantum processor. In some aspects, a preprocessor unit obtains input data for a computer process that is configured to run on a computer processing unit. Randomized parameter values are computed for variable parameters of a quantum logic circuit based on the input data. A classical processor in the preprocessor unit computes the randomized parameter values from the input data and a set of random numbers. A quantum processor in the preprocessor unit produces quantum processor output data by executing the quantum logic circuit having the randomized parameter values assigned to the variable parameters. Preprocessed data generated based on the quantum processor output data are then provided as the input for the computer process configured to run on the computer processing unit.
