Off-line quantum-advantage feature extraction for industrial production

Carlos Flores-Garrigos, Gabriel D. Alvarado Barrios, Qi Zhang +2

Quantum computing is no longer a lab curiosity for academic research. Industrial processors exceeding 100 qubits are commercially accessible and, for the first time, can extract in…

Quantum Feature Selection with Higher-Order Binary Optimization on Trapped-Ion Hardware

Carlos Flores-Garrigós, Anton Simen, Qi Zhang +6

We present a quantum feature-selection framework based on a higher-order unconstrained binary optimization (HUBO) formulation that explicitly incorporates multivariate dependencies…

Quantum-enhanced satellite image classification

Qi Zhang, Anton Simen, Carlos Flores-Garrigós +7

We demonstrate the application of a quantum feature extraction method to enhance multi-class image classification for space applications. By harnessing the dynamics of many-body sp…

Digitized Counterdiabatic Quantum Sampling

Narendra N. Hegade, Nachiket L. Kortikar, Balaganchi A. Bhargava +9

We propose digitized counterdiabatic quantum sampling (DCQS), a hybrid quantum-classical algorithm for efficient sampling from energy-based models, such as low-temperature Boltzman…

Quantum Combinatorial Reasoning for Large Language Models

Carlos Flores-Garrigos, Gaurav Dev, Michael Falkenthal +5

We design and implement a quantum combinatorial reasoning framework for large language models (QCR-LLM), integrating a real quantum computer in the hybrid workflow. QCR-LLM reformu…

Analog Quantum Feature Selection with Neutral-Atom Quantum Processors

Jose J. Orquin-Marques, Carlos Flores-Garrigos, Alejandro Gomez Cadavid +5

We present a quantum-native approach to quantum feature selection (QFS) based on analog quantum simulation with neutral atom arrays, adaptable to a variety of academic and industri…
