A bit too much: Reducing the bit width of Ising models for quantum annealing: Scientists find a way to make Ising models easier to implement physically for solving combinatorial optimization problems – Science Daily
Quantum annealers are devices that physically implement a quantum system called the ‘Ising model’ to solve combinatorial optimization problems. However, the coefficients…
Given a list of cities and the distances between each pair of cities, how do you determine the shortest route that visits each city exactly once and returns to the starting location? This famous problem is called the “traveling salesman problem” and is an example of a combinatorial optimization problem. Solving these problems using conventional computers can be very time-consuming, and special devices called “quantum annealers” have been created for this purpose.Quantum annealers are designed to…
