This paper proposes an efficient quantum train engine (EQuaTE), a novel tool for quantum machine learning software which plots gradient variances to check whether our quantum neural network (QNN) falls into local minima (called barren plateaus in QNN). This can be realized via dynamic analysis due to undetermined probabilistic qubit states. Furthermore, our EQuaTE is capable for HCI-based visual feedback because software engineers can recognize barren plateaus via visualization; and also modify QNN based on this information.
