Time series prediction is the crucial task for many human activities e.g. weather forecasts or predicting stock prices. One solution to this problem is to use Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs). Although they can yield accurate predictions, their learning process is slow and complex. Here we propose a Quantum Recurrent Neural Network (QRNN) to address these obstacles. The design of the network is based on the continuous-variable quantum computing paradigm. We demonstrate that the network is capable of learning time dependence of a few types of temporal data. Our numerical simulations show that the QRNN converges to optimal weights in fewer epochs than the classical network. Furthermore, for a small number of trainable parameters it can achieve lower loss than the latter.
