This paper analytically identifies a "transition role" for entangled training data in Quantum Machine Learning, demonstrating that the benefits of entanglement in reducing prediction error are contingent on the number of available measurements. The study proves that while sufficient measurements enable entangled data to improve QML performance, limited measurements can render highly entangled data less effective, and even detrimental, for learning quantum dynamics.

Key insights

• The impact of entangled training data in Quantum Machine Learning (QML) is not uniformly beneficial; its effectiveness depends critically on the number of available measurements.
• When measurements are sufficient, increasing data entanglement (Schmidt rank) reduces prediction error and required training data size, aligning with quantum advantage intuitions.
• Conversely, with limited measurements, highly entangled data can increase prediction error, suggesting a trade-off where simple, less entangled data might be more effective due to insufficient information extraction.
