New York: Google and NASA have announced the installation of a new state-of-the-art quantum computer at their Quantum Artificial Intelligence Lab (QuAIL) that will solve some “impossible” calculations for them.
A joint project between Google, NASA and the Universities Space Research Association, QuAIL is the hub for an experiment to assess the potential of quantum computers to perform calculations that are difficult or impossible using conventional supercomputers.
Beginning with the “D-Wave Two” quantum computer, NASA’s QuAIL team is evaluating various quantum computing approaches to help address challenges faced by the US space agency.
Initial work focuses on theoretical and empirical analysis of quantum annealing approaches to difficult optimisation problems.Quantum annealing is a quantum-mechanical paradigm to solve combinatorial optimisation problems.
According to NASA, the research team is also studying how the effects of noise, imprecision in the quantum annealing parameters, and thermal processes affect the efficacy and robustness of quantum annealing approaches to these problems.
Over the next five years, the team will also develop quantum AI algorithms, problem decomposition and hardware embedding techniques, and quantum-classical hybrid algorithms.
