Diversity metric for evaluation of quantum annealing
Alex Zucca, Hossein Sadeghi, Masoud Mohseni +1
Solving discrete NP-hard problems is an important part of scientific discoveries and operations research as well as many commercial applications. A commonly used metric to compare…
A Path Towards Quantum Advantage in Training Deep Generative Models with Quantum Annealers
Walter Vinci, Lorenzo Buffoni, Hossein Sadeghi +3
The development of quantum-classical hybrid (QCH) algorithms is critical to achieve state-of-the-art computational models. A QCH variational autoencoder (QVAE) was introduced in Re…
PixelVAE++: Improved PixelVAE with Discrete Prior
Hossein Sadeghi, Evgeny Andriyash, Walter Vinci +2
Constructing powerful generative models for natural images is a challenging task. PixelCNN models capture details and local information in images very well but have limited recepti…
Quantum-Assisted Genetic Algorithm
James King, Masoud Mohseni, William Bernoudy +5
Genetic algorithms, which mimic evolutionary processes to solve optimization problems, can be enhanced by using powerful semi-local search algorithms as mutation operators. Here, w…
Quantum Variational Autoencoder
Amir Khoshaman, Walter Vinci, Brandon Denis +3
Variational autoencoders (VAEs) are powerful generative models with the salient ability to perform inference. Here, we introduce a quantum variational autoencoder (QVAE): a VAE who…
