Ridgelet transform has been a fundamental mathematical tool in the theoretical studies of neural networks. However, the practical applicability of ridgelet transform to conducting learning tasks was limited since its numerical implementation by conventional classical computation requires an exponential runtime exp(O(D)) as data dimension D increases. To address this problem, we develop a quantum ridgelet transform (QRT), which implements the ridgelet transform of a quantum state within a linear runtime O(D) of quantum computation. As an application, we also show that one can use QRT as a fundamental subroutine for quantum machine learning (QML) to efficiently find a sparse trainable subnetwork of large shallow wide neural networks without conducting large-scale optimization of the original network. This application discovers an efficient way in this regime to demonstrate the lottery ticket hypothesis on finding such a sparse trainable neural network. These results open an avenue of QML for accelerating learning tasks with commonly used classical neural networks.
