Abstract

Systems, computer-implemented methods, and computer program products that can facilitate applying a reinforcement learning policy to available actions are described. According to an embodiment, a system can comprise a memory that stores computer executable components and a processor that executes the computer executable components stored in the memory. The computer executable components can comprise a state encoder that maps, based on one or more encoding parameters, a state of an environment on to one or more qubits of a quantum device. The system can further comprise a variational component that combines a reinforcement learning policy with a sampling of the one or more qubits, resulting, based on one or more variational parameters, in a probability distribution of a plurality of available actions at the state of the environment.
