Capturing the properties of quantum many-body systems poses a major challenge from a theoretical standpoint, as both the task of numerical simulation as well as the characterization of an experiment from sparse data are suffering from the curse of dimensionality. Variational approaches based on neural networks have therefore become popular, mitigating the curse of dimensionality by searching for a solution in an artificially reduced space. We will motivate and introduce a particular class of such a scheme that allows to describe mixed states in spin systems, before showing its application to quantum state tomography (QST). We show an excellent representability of prototypical ground- and steady states with this ansatz using a number of variational parameters that scales polynomially in system size. This compressed representation allows us to reconstruct states with high classical fidelities outperforming standard methods such as maximum likelihood estimation of the full density matrix.
