Lossy Fock boson sampling probabilities are finite Fourier series in each phase, so their exact gradients can be recovered from shifted photon-count measurements; Gaussian boson sampling under general loss admits no such finite rule.
Why i am optimistic about the silicon- photonic route to quantum computing,

Parameter-Shift Rules for Gradients in Boson Sampling Experiments
Lossy Fock boson sampling probabilities are finite Fourier series in each phase, so their exact gradients can be recovered from shifted photon-count measurements; Gaussian boson sampling under general loss admits no such finite rule.
