Truncated-Binary Encoding: Spectral Degree Reduction of Combinatorial Optimization Problems for Quantum Hardware
Tristan Zaborniak
Exact-binary encoding compiles a discrete cost function network (CFN) into a higher-order unconstrained binary optimization (HUBO) problem whose maximum monomial degree grows with…
Quantum Injection Pathways for Implicit Graph Neural Networks
Pengyuan Xu, Tristan Zaborniak, Luis F. Rivera +1
Deep Equilibrium Models (DEQs) replace a stack of explicit layers with a single operator whose fixed point defines the output, giving the expressive power of an arbitrarily deep ne…
Playing Dice with the Universe: Programming Quantum Computers to Play Traditional Games
Tristan Zaborniak, Vikram Khipple Mulligan
The challenge of programming classical computers to play traditional, competitive games against human players has helped to advance classical hardware and software. Quantum compute…
Qubit-efficient and gate-efficient encodings of graph partitioning problems for quantum optimization
Tristan Zaborniak, Prashanti Priya Angara, Vikram Khipple Mulligan +2
We introduce a qubit- and gate-efficient higher-order unconstrained binary optimization (HUBO) encoding for graph partitioning problems requiring label-count minimization. This wid…
Discrete quadratic model QUBO solution landscapes
Tristan Zaborniak, Ulrike Stege
Many computational problems involve optimization over discrete variables with quadratic interactions. Known as discrete quadratic models (DQMs), these problems in general are NP-ha…
Multibody molecular docking on a quantum annealer
Mohit Pandey, Tristan Zaborniak, Hans Melo +2
Molecular docking, which aims to find the most stable interacting configuration of a set of molecules, is of critical importance to drug discovery. Although a considerable number o…
A QUBO model of the RNA folding problem optimized by variational hybrid quantum annealing
Tristan Zaborniak, Juan Giraldo, Hausi Müller +2
RNAs self-interact through hydrogen-bond base-pairing between nucleotides and fold into specific, stable structures that substantially govern their biochemical behaviour. Experimen…
Benchmarking Hamiltonian Noise in the D-Wave Quantum Annealer
Tristan Zaborniak, Rogério de Sousa
Various sources of noise limit the performance of quantum computers by altering qubit states in an uncontrolled manner throughout computations and reducing their coherence time. In…
