//! Trainable quantum (embedding) kernels optimized by gradient ascent.
//!
//! Reference: Hubregtsen, Wierichs, Gil-Fuster, Derks, Faehrmann & Meyer,
//! "Training quantum embedding kernels on near-term quantum computers",
//! Phys. Rev. A 106, 042431 (2022).
//!
//! A *quantum embedding kernel* is the fidelity kernel of a **parametrized**
//! feature map `|ψ_θ(x)⟩`:
//!
//! ```text
//! k_θ(x, y) = |⟨ψ_θ(x) | ψ_θ(y)⟩|².
//! ```
//!
//! The embedding parameters `θ` are trained (classically, here) to make the
//! kernel useful for a labelled data set by maximizing the **kernel-target
//! alignment** with the ideal label kernel `Y_ij = y_i y_j` (`y_i ∈ {-1,+1}`):
//!
//! ```text
//! A(θ) = ⟨K_θ, Y⟩_F / ( ‖K_θ‖_F · ‖Y‖_F ),
//! ```
//!
//! the Frobenius inner product of the (centered-by-labels) Gram matrix and the
//! outer product of the labels. We optimize `A(θ)` by gradient ascent; gradients
//! are obtained with the parameter-shift rule applied to every kernel entry.
//!
//! ## Trainable embedding
//! The feature map is a single hardware-efficient layer with a per-feature
//! trainable scale: qubit `i` receives `Ry(θ_i · x_i)`, followed by a CNOT
//! entangling ladder. The trainable scales `θ` let the optimizer adapt the
//! data-dependent rotation magnitude (the dominant knob controlling the kernel's
//! effective bandwidth and expressivity).
