Generative models are among the most promising approaches toward understanding unlabelled data. They have a wide range of applications in structured prediction, molecular & material design, image analysis, speech synthesis, and computer vision. They pair with supervised learning models to help perform ML tasks when labelling data is expensive or labels are only available in a different domain....

The recent advances in qubit manufacturing and coherent control of synthetic quantum matter are leading to a new generation of intermediate scale quantum hardware, with promising progress towards scalable simulation of quantum matter and materials. In order to enhance the capabilities of this class of quantum devices, some of the more arduous experimental tasks can be off-loaded to classical...

We introduce quantum algorithms for solving finite-horizon and infinite-horizon dynamic programming problems. We visit the query complexity lower bounds for classical randomized algorithms for the same tasks and consequently demonstrate a polynomial separation between the query complexity of our quantum algorithms and best-case query complexity of classical randomized algorithms. Up to...

Data Science and Quantum Computing Workshop
A Variational AutoEncoder (VAE) is a generative method used to approximate the probability distribution of processes in very high dimensional spaces. We apply VAEs for generative modelling of Water Cherenkov detectors which are used to perform precision measurements on neutrinos. In this talk, I will discuss the steps and challenges in applying VAEs to simulated neutrino events in the proposed...

Data Science and Quantum Computing Workshop
The Fujitsu Digital Annealer is a new technology that is used to solve large-scale combinatorial optimization problems instantly. The Digital Annealer uses a digital circuit design and can solve problems which are intractable for classical computers. In this workshop, we introduce how the Digital Annealer works for solving combinatorial optimization problems with use cases drawn from...
