Degeneracy Counting Quantum Algorithm using Decoherence

Malay Marut Das, Mark A. Novotny, Yaroslav Koshka

Counting the global optima of a classical optimization problem is a #P-hard task. We develop the canonical thermal pure quantum (CTPQ) state-based degeneracy counting (CTPQsd#) alg…

Investigation of D-Wave quantum annealing for training Restricted Boltzmann Machines and mitigating catastrophic forgetting

Abdelmoula El-Yazizi, Yaroslav Koshka

Modest statistical differences between the sampling performances of the D-Wave quantum annealer (QA) and the classical Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC), when applied to Restricted B…

Comparison of D-Wave Quantum Annealing and Gibbs Monte Carlo for Sampling from a Probability Distribution of a Restricted Boltzmann Machine

Abdelmoula El-Yazizi, Yaroslav Koshka

A local-valley (LV) centered approach to assessing the quality of sampling from Restricted Boltzmann Machines (RBMs) was applied to the latest generation of the D-Wave quantum anne…

Comparison of D-Wave Quantum Annealing and Classical Simulated Annealing for Local Minima Determination

Yaroslav Koshka, M. A. Novotny

Restricted Boltzmann Machines trained with different numbers of iterations were used to provide a diverse set of energy functions each containing many local valleys (LVs) with diff…

Towards Sampling from Nondirected Probabilistic Graphical models using a D-Wave Quantum Annealer

Yaroslav Koshka, M. A. Novotny

A D-Wave quantum annealer (QA) having a 2048 qubit lattice, with no missing qubits and couplings, allowed embedding of a complete graph of a Restricted Boltzmann Machine (RBM). A h…
