Abstract: This paper explores the application of variational quantum circuits (VQCs) for solving offline contextual bandit problems in industrial optimization tasks. Using the Industrial Benchmark (IB ...

Sandia National Laboratories Director Laura McGill said this week that she believes that in less than 10 years it will have developed quantum computing capabilities ...

Abstract: The pathfinding problem in a graph has been solved using several classical algorithms, notably Dijkstra’s and A* algorithms. However, most classical algorithms are most effective on static ...

As generative AI pushes power grids to their limits, the industry largely favors incremental measures that fail to address underlying issues. The path toward sustainable AI lies in combining quantum ...

Within the STRUCTURES Cluster of Excellence, two research teams at the Interdisciplinary Center for Scientific Computing (IWR) have refined a computing process, long held to be unreliable, such that ...
