Hybrid Quantum-Classical Machine Learning Algorithms for Multi-Output Time-Series Forecasting at Utility Scale
Mackenson Polché, Varun Puram, Aditi Lal +6
Multi-output time-series forecasting in energy systems is challenging because of nonlinear dynamics, multi-scale seasonality, and strong dependencies across correlated series. In t…
Constrained Quantum Optimization at Utility Scale: Application to the Knapsack Problem
Naeimeh Mohseni, Julien-Pierre Houle, Ibrahim Shehzad +3
Constrained combinatorial optimization problems are challenging for quantum computing, particularly at utility-relevant scales and on near-term hardware. At the same time, these pr…
Boosting Sparsity in Graph Decompositions with QAOA Sampling
George Pennington, Naeimeh Mohseni, Oscar Wallis +5
We study the problem of decomposing a graph into a weighted sum of a small number of matchings, a task that arises in network resource allocation problems such as peer-to-peer ener…
Enhancing the Scalability of Classical Surrogates for Real-World Quantum Machine Learning Applications
Philip Anton Hernicht, Alona Sakhnenko, Corey O'Meara +2
Quantum machine learning (QML) presents potential for early industrial adoption, yet limited access to quantum hardware remains a significant bottleneck for deployment of QML solut…
Efficient QAOA Architecture for Solving Multi-Constrained Optimization Problems
David Bucher, Daniel Porawski, Maximilian Janetschek +4
This paper proposes a novel combination of constraint encoding methods for the Quantum Approximate Optimization Ansatz (QAOA). Real-world optimization problems typically consist of…
Grid Cost Allocation in Peer-to-Peer Electricity Markets: Benchmarking Classical and Quantum Optimization Approaches
David Bucher, Daniel Porawski, Benedikt Wimmer +4
This paper presents a novel optimization approach for allocating grid operation costs in Peer-to-Peer (P2P) electricity markets using Quantum Computing (QC). We develop a Quadratic…
