Publication number: 20240330535Abstract: Embodiments of the invention are directed to a programmable computer system having a processor system operable to perform processor system operations that include representing a set of candidate functions in a mathematical expression domain. The set of candidate functions defines relationships between data of an existing system. A set of known background theory is represented in the mathematical expression domain.

Publication number: 20240330710Abstract: A method generates automated discovery of new scientific formulas. The method includes receiving a background theory associated with a phenomenon being studied. The processor receives a set of training data associated with the phenomenon being studied. The set of training data is processed in a machine learning model that generates candidate formulas from data points in the set of training data. Values of a numerical error-vector are generated for the candidate formulas. The candidate formulas are processed in a reasoning model. The operation of the reasoning model includes generating values of a theoretical error-vector based on the background theory. An output of a performance metric is generated based on a generalization of the theoretical error-vector and a reasoning error. The processor determines whether one of the candidate formulas is a meaningful and valid new scientific formula, based on a behavior of the reasoning error and the reasoning performance metric.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 31, 2023Publication date: October 3, 2024Inventors: Lior Horesh, Cristina Cornelio, Bachir El Khadir, Sanjeeb Dash, Joao P.

Publication number: 20240028939Abstract: A quantum computer-implemented system, method, and computer program product for quantum topological domain analysis (QTDA). The QTDA method achieves an improved exponential speedup and depth complexity of O(n log(1/(??))) where n is the number of data points, ? is the error tolerance, ? is the smallest nonzero eigenvalue of the restricted Laplacian, and achieves quantum advantage on general classical data. The QTDA system and method efficiently realizes a combinatorial Laplacian as a sum of Pauli operators; performs a quantum rejection sampling and projection approach to build the relevant simplicial complex repeatedly and restrict the superposition to the simplices of a desired order in the complex; and estimates Betti numbers using a stochastic trace/rank estimation method that does not require Quantum Phase Estimation. The quantum circuit and QTDA method exhibits computational time and depth complexities for Betti number estimation up to an error tolerance ?.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 13, 2022Publication date: January 25, 2024Inventors: Ismail Yunus Akhalwaya, Shashanka Ubaru, Kenneth Lee Clarkson, Mark S.
