Phase analysis of Ising machines and their implications on optimization
Shu Zhou, K. Y. Michael Wong, Juntao Wang +3
Ising machines, which are dynamical systems designed to operate in a parallel and iterative manner, have emerged as a new paradigm for solving combinatorial optimization problems.…
Bound on annealing performance from stochastic thermodynamics, with application to simulated annealing
Yutong Luo, Yi-Zheng Zhen, Xiangjing Liu +2
Annealing is the process of gradually lowering the temperature of a system to guide it towards its lowest energy states. In an accompanying paper [Luo et al. Phys. Rev. E 108, L052…
General limit to thermodynamic annealing performance
Yutong Luo, Yi-Zheng Zhen, Xiangjing Liu +2
Annealing has proven highly successful in finding minima in a cost landscape. Yet, depending on the landscape, systems often converge towards local minima rather than global ones.…
