Image preparations of multi-mode quantum image representation and their application on quantum image reproduction

Efficient and general quantum image representation and preparation are the precondition of quantum image processing. The multi-mode quantum image representation is compatible with many important color modes. Studying image preparation and image processing will help to further improve the universality of quantum image on different application fields. In this paper, we improve the multi-mode quantum image representation to reduce the difficulty of entanglement preparation. We give a detailed image preparation process and algorithm based on this proved representation. Then, to reduce the number of Not-gates in preparation circuits, the optimal preparation is proposed. Furthermore, we give the reproduction circuit based on these preparations. The preparation and reproduction experiments are performed on the IBM Quantum lab platform. The circuits and the Bell-state statistic histograms of the measurement collapse are given. The results show that the preparations and reproduction are correct and efficient.
