Advancing Quantum Technology: Insights Form Mach-Zehnder Interferometer in Quantum State Behaviour and Error Correction
Journal of Quantum Computing, Vol.6, pp. 53-66, 2024, DOI:10.32604/jqc.2024.054000 - 14 November 2024
Abstract The present study delves into the application of investigating quantum state behaviour, particularly focusing on coherent and superposition states. These states, characterized by their remarkable stability and precision, have found extensive utility in various domains of quantum mechanics and quantum information processing. Coherent states are valuable for manipulating quantum systems with accuracy. Superposition states allow quantum systems to exist in numerous configurations at the same time, which paves the way for quantum computing’s capacity for parallel processing. The research accentuates the crucial role of quantum error correction (QEC) in ensuring the stability and reliability of… More >

IQAOA for Two Routing Problems: A Methodological Contribution with Application to TSP and VRP
Journal of Quantum Computing, Vol.6, pp. 25-51, 2024, DOI:10.32604/jqc.2024.048792 - 25 October 2024
Abstract The paper presents a novel quantum method for addressing two fundamental routing problems: the Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP) and the Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP), both central to routing challenges. The proposed method, named the Indirect Quantum Approximate Optimization Algorithm (IQAOA), leverages an indirect solution representation using ranking. Our contribution focuses on two main areas: 1) the indirect representation of solutions, and 2) the integration of this representation into an extended version of QAOA, called IQAOA. This approach offers an alternative to QAOA and includes the following components: 1) a quantum parameterized circuit designed to simulate… More >

Optimized General Uniform Quantum State Preparation
Journal of Quantum Computing, Vol.6, pp. 15-24, 2024, DOI:10.32604/jqc.2024.047423 - 24 April 2024
Abstract Quantum algorithms for unstructured search problems rely on the preparation of a uniform superposition, traditionally achieved through Hadamard gates. However, this incidentally creates an auxiliary search space consisting of nonsensical answers that do not belong in the search space and reduce the efficiency of the algorithm due to the need to neglect, un-compute, or destructively interfere with them. Previous approaches to removing this auxiliary search space yielded large circuit depth and required the use of ancillary qubits. We have developed an optimized general solver for a circuit that prepares a uniform superposition of any N More >

Journal of Quantum Computing, Vol.4, No.1, pp. 53-61, 2022, DOI:10.32604/jqc.2022.027683
Abstract As one of the major methods for the simulation of option pricing, Monte Carlo method assumes random fluctuations in the distribution of asset prices. Under certain uncertainties process, different evolution paths could be simulated so as to finally yield the expectation value of the asset price, which requires a lot of simulations to ensure the accuracy based on huge and expensive calculations. In order to solve the above computational problem, quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) has been established and applied in the relevant systems such as European call options.

Online News Sentiment Classification Using DistilBERT
Journal of Quantum Computing, Vol.4, No.1, pp. 1-11, 2022, DOI:10.32604/jqc.2022.026658
Abstract The ability of pre-trained BERT model to achieve outstanding performances on many Natural Language Processing (NLP) tasks has attracted the attention of researchers in recent times. However, the huge computational and memory requirements have hampered its widespread deployment on devices with limited resources. The concept of knowledge distillation has shown to produce smaller and faster distilled models with less trainable parameters and intended for resource-constrained environments. The distilled models can be fine-tuned with great performance on a wider range of tasks, such as sentiment classification. This paper evaluates the performance of DistilBERT model and other More >

Abstract The extraction of entity relationship triples is very important to build a knowledge graph (KG), meanwhile, various entity relationship extraction algorithms are mostly based on data-driven, especially for the current popular deep learning algorithms. Therefore, obtaining a large number of accurate triples is the key to build a good KG as well as train a good entity relationship extraction algorithm.

Abstract In this paper, focus has been given to design and implement signed binary subtraction in quantum logic. Since the type of operand may be positive or negative, therefore a novel algorithm has been developed to detect the type of operand and as per the selection of the type of operands, separate design techniques have been developed to make the circuit compact and work very efficiently. Two separate methods have been shown in the paper to perform the signed subtraction. The results show promising for the second method in respect of ancillary input count and garbage More >

Abstract The well-known Riccati differential equations play a key role in many fields, including problems in protein folding, control and stabilization, stochastic control, and cybersecurity (risk analysis and malware propagation). Quantum computer algorithms have the potential to implement faster approximate solutions to the Riccati equations compared with strictly classical algorithms.

Journal of Quantum Computing, Vol.4, No.2, pp. 85-95, 2022, DOI:10.32604/jqc.2022.031436
Abstract A GRASP-based algorithm called T_GRASP for avoiding typhoon route optimization is suggested to increase the security and effectiveness of ship navigation. One of the worst natural calamities that can disrupt a ship’s navigation and result in numerous safety mishaps is a typhoon. Currently, the captains manually review the collected weather data and steer clear of typhoons using their navigational expertise. The distribution of heavy winds and waves produced by the typhoon also changes dynamically as a result of the surrounding large-scale air pressure distribution, which significantly enhances the challenge of the captain’s preparation for avoiding… More >

can decide which combination to use based on the shared key information
provided from a quantum key distribution (QKD) protocol. By doing so, the
security of the protocol can be improved further. Decoy photon technology is also More >
