Quantum implementation of an artificial feed-forward neural network

Francesco Tacchino, Panagiotis Barkoutsos, Chiara Macchiavello +3

Artificial intelligence algorithms largely build on multi-layered neural networks. Coping with their increasing complexity and memory requirements calls for a paradigmatic change i…

Quantum Orbital-Optimized Unitary Coupled Cluster Methods in the Strongly Correlated Regime: Can Quantum Algorithms Outperform their Classical Equivalents?

Igor O. Sokolov, Panagiotis Kl. Barkoutsos, Pauline J. Ollitrault +4

The Coupled Cluster (CC) method is used to compute the electronic correlation energy in atoms and molecules and often leads to highly accurate results. However, due to its single-r…

Non-unitary operations for ground-state calculations in near term quantum computers

Guglielmo Mazzola, Pauline Ollitrault, Panagiotis Barkoutsos +1

We introduce a quantum Monte Carlo inspired reweighting scheme to accurately compute energies from optimally short quantum circuits. This effectively hybrid quantum-classical appro…

Variational Quantum Simulation of Ultrastrong Light-Matter Coupling

Agustin Di Paolo, Panagiotis Kl. Barkoutsos, Ivano Tavernelli +1

We propose the simulation of quantum-optical systems in the ultrastrong-coupling regime using a variational quantum algorithm. More precisely, we introduce a short-depth variationa…

Resource-Efficient Quantum Algorithm for Protein Folding

Anton Robert, Panagiotis Kl. Barkoutsos, Stefan Woerner +1

Predicting the three-dimensional (3D) structure of a protein from its primary sequence of amino acids is known as the protein folding (PF) problem. Due to the central role of prote…
