Quantum computing exists beyond the realm of science fiction. Technology is now integrating with artificial intelligence to transform machine learning capabilities, adaptation and reasoning abilities.

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 ...

Quantum computers still can’t do much. Almost every time researchers have found something the high-tech machines should one day excel at, a classical algorithm comes along that can do it just as well ...

A new quantum algorithm developed by University of Georgia statisticians addresses one of the most complex challenges in single-cell analysis, signaling significant impact in both the fields of ...

Right now, quantum computers are small and error-prone compared to where they’ll likely be in a few years. Even within those limitations, however, there have been regular claims that the hardware can ...

PLANAR was validated by the researchers through comprehensive testing involving synthetic data, Google's quantum experimental results, and their in-house 72-qubit quantum chip. In every case, the ...

It’s been difficult to find important questions that quantum computers can answer faster than classical machines, but a new algorithm appears to do it for some critical optimization tasks. For ...

Toronto-based Xanadu Quantum Technologies published a new algorithmic optimization on May 21 that halves the Toffoli gate count inside Quantum Read-Only Memory (QROM) subroutines — the single most ...
