Postprocessing Variationally Scheduled Quantum Algorithm for Constrained Combinatorial Optimization Problems

March 13, 2024Tatsuhiko Shirai, Nozomu TogawaQuantum ComputingAnnealing, Computational modeling, Logic gates, Quantum algorithm, Quantum annealing, Quantum computing, Schedules

In this article, we propose a postprocessing variationally scheduled quantum algorithm (pVSQA) for solving constrained combinatorial optimization problems (COPs). COPs are typically transformed into ground-state search problems of the Ising model on a quantum annealer or gate-based quantum device. Variational methods are used to find an optimal schedule function that leads to high-quality solutions in […]

Recently, quantum computing has been proven as an ideal theory for the design of fuzzy inference engines, thanks to its capability to efficiently solve the rule explosion problem. In this scenario, a quantum fuzzy inference engine (QFIE) was proposed as a quantum algorithm able to generate an exponential computational advantage over conventional fuzzy inference engines. […]

Recent advancements have highlighted the limitations of current quantum systems, particularly the restricted number of qubits available on near-term quantum devices. This constraint greatly inhibits the range of applications that can leverage quantum computers. Moreover, as the available qubits increase, the computational complexity grows exponentially, posing additional challenges. Consequently, there is an urgent need to […]
