Rigetti was selected by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) to advance the state-of-the-art in quantum algorithms for solving combinatorial optimization problems as part of the ...

A quantum version of a computer algorithm widely used in finance, engineering and scientific modelling shows promising signs of operating much faster than existing methods. Experts say there are many ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. For computer scientists, solving problems is a bit like mountaineering. First they must choose a problem to solve—akin to identifying a ...

EPFL Professor Giuseppe Carleo and a graduate student from Columbia University named Matija Medvidović have found a way to execute a complex quantum computing algorithm on a traditional computer.

The rise of quantum computing and its implications for current encryption standards are well known. But why exactly should quantum computers be especially adept at breaking encryption? The answer is a ...

In a new development that is most likely to establish a new industry standard, scientists at Cambridge Quantum (CQ) have created a new algorithm for solving combinatorial optimization problems that ...

Systems controlled by next-generation computing algorithms could give rise to better and more efficient machine learning products, a new study suggests. Systems controlled by next-generation computing ...

Many experts believe that once quantum computers are big enough and reliable enough to solve useful problems, the most common deployment architecture will be to have them serve as accelerators for ...
