  • Publication number: 20230402191
    Abstract: Examples are described herein for determining aggregate psychological states of multiple individuals. In various examples, sensor data indicative of affects of multiple individuals may be analyzed. Based on the analyzing, the multiple individuals may be partitioned into multiple distinct clusters of individuals.

  • Publication number: 20230206101
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method of gate-fusion transpilation for a simulation operation includes receiving a quantum circuit data representing a quantum circuit. A first quantum gate manipulates a state of a qubit in the quantum circuit. A measure gate is configured to measure the state of the qubit. The quantum circuit data is compiled into a format compatible with the simulated operation of the quantum circuit. A gate-fusion transpilation procedure based on a configuration of the quantum circuit is retrieved and executed by a computing device when pre-stored in a cache, or is created and executed by the computing device when it is determined there is no pre-storage in cache. The simulated operation of the quantum circuit is performed and a result is output.

  • Patent number: 11586792
    Abstract: Embodiments are provided to simulate a quantum circuit. A system receives a quantum circuit (or its representation), generates a graph, and adds edges for each n-qubit of fusion to be applied. Costs are estimated or calculated for various paths of gate fusion between endpoints in the graph. One or more paths are selected, for example, the lowest cost path based on a Dijkstra algorithm evaluation. A unitary matrix for each gate fusion is then generated for simulating the quantum circuit. A simulation is performed locally or remotely based on the gate fusions along the selected one or more paths, and thus, improving the memory and processor performance of the simulation.
