Measurements Number Scaling in the Quantum Approximate Optimization Algorithm for MaxCut: A Statistical Analysis

Inbar Chefer, Uri Shaham, Adi Makmal

We provide a statistical analysis of the measurement (shot) requirements of the quantum approximate optimization algorithm (QAOA) for the MaxCut problem. We derive sufficient condi…

Enhancing VICReg: Random-Walk Pairing for Improved Generalization and Better Global Semantics Capturing

Idan Simai, Ronen Talmon, Uri Shaham

In this paper, we argue that viewing VICReg-a popular self-supervised learning (SSL) method--through the lens of spectral embedding reveals a potential source of sub-optimality: it…

SPARC: Spectral Architectures Tackling the Cold-Start Problem in Graph Learning

Yahel Jacobs, Reut Dayan, Uri Shaham

Graphs play a central role in modeling complex relationships in data, yet most graph learning methods falter when faced with cold-start nodes--new nodes lacking initial connections…
