First quantum algorithm to characterize noise

Researchers at University of Sydney Nano Institute have developed the first system-wide quantum algorithm to characterize noise. Noise is the main obstacle to building large-scale quantum computers. To tame the noise (interference or instability), scientists […]

Quantum computing enhanced computational catalysis

The quantum computation of electronic energies can break the curse of dimensionality that plagues many-particle quantum mechanics. It is for this reason that a universal quantum computer has the potential to fundamentally change computational chemistry […]

Elyah brings visual quantum programming

Elyah has recently released its online circuit tool to program quantum computers. It comes built-in with a fast in-browser simulator, and a few more perks, like having the option to print your circuits. The tool, Qubit […]

Using entangled photons to play “quantum Go”

A team of researchers affiliated with several institutions in China has developed a form of the board game Go using entanglement. The researchers created a version of quantum Go using entangled photons and found that […]

Reinforcement Learning to perform Qubit routing

Researchers at University of Cambridge have presented an interesting paper regarding the usage of Reinforcement Learning to perform Qubit routing in Quantum compilers. Qubit routing refers to the task of modifying quantum circuits so that […]

Option pricing using Quantum Computers

A team from JPMorgan Chase, IBM Research Zurich and ETH Zurich presents a methodology to price options and portfolios of options on a gate-based quantum computer using amplitude estimation, an algorithm which provides a quadratic […]

Quantum machines learn ‘quantum data’

Skoltech scientists have shown that quantum enhanced machine learning can be used on quantum (as opposed to classical) data, overcoming a significant slowdown common to these applications and opening a “fertile ground to develop computational […]
