A dataflow programming framework for linear optical distributed quantum computing
Giovanni de Felice, Boldizsár Poór, Cole Comfort +4
Photonic systems offer a promising platform for interconnecting quantum processors and enabling scalable, networked architectures. Designing and verifying such architectures requir…
Optyx: A ZX-based Python library for networked quantum architectures
Mateusz Kupper, Richie Yeung, Boldizsár Poór +3
Distributed, large-scale quantum computing will need architectures that combine matter-based qubits with photonic links, but today's software stacks target either gate-based chips…
Finding trail covers: near-optimal decompositions of graph states as linear fusion networks
William Cashman, Giovanni de Felice, Aleks Kissinger
Quantum compilation requires the development of new algorithms that optimise the cost of implementing quantum computations on physical hardware. Often this gives rise to problems w…
Fusion and flow: formal protocols to reliably build photonic graph states
Giovanni de Felice, Boldizsár Poór, Lia Yeh +1
Photonics offers a promising platform for implementations of measurement-based quantum computing. Recently proposed fusion-based architectures aim to achieve universality and fault…
Experimental quantum-enhanced kernels on a photonic processor
Zhenghao Yin, Iris Agresti, Giovanni de Felice +9
Recently, machine learning had a remarkable impact, from scientific to everyday-life applications. However, complex tasks often imply unfeasible energy and computational power cons…
Light-Matter Interaction in the ZXW Calculus
Giovanni de Felice, Razin A. Shaikh, Boldizsár Poór +3
In this paper, we develop a graphical calculus to rewrite photonic circuits involving light-matter interactions and non-linear optical effects. We introduce the infinite ZW calculu…
DisCoPy for the quantum computer scientist
Alexis Toumi, Giovanni de Felice, Richie Yeung
DisCoPy (Distributional Compositional Python) is an open source toolbox for computing with string diagrams and functors. In particular, the diagram data structure allows to encode…
How to make qubits speak
Bob Coecke, Giovanni de Felice, Konstantinos Meichanetzidis +1
This is a story about making quantum computers speak, and doing so in a quantum-native, compositional and meaning-aware manner. Recently we did question-answering with an actual qu…
Diagrammatic Differentiation for Quantum Machine Learning
Alexis Toumi, Richie Yeung, Giovanni de Felice
We introduce diagrammatic differentiation for tensor calculus by generalising the dual number construction from rigs to monoidal categories. Applying this to ZX diagrams, we show h…
Foundations for Near-Term Quantum Natural Language Processing
Bob Coecke, Giovanni de Felice, Konstantinos Meichanetzidis +1
We provide conceptual and mathematical foundations for near-term quantum natural language processing (QNLP), and do so in quantum computer scientist friendly terms. We opted for an…
There and back again: A circuit extraction tale
Miriam Backens, Hector Miller-Bakewell, Giovanni de Felice +2
Translations between the quantum circuit model and the measurement-based one-way model are useful for verification and optimisation of quantum computations. They make crucial use o…
