Publication number: 20230401485Abstract: There is provided a method and apparatus for at least one of optimizing, monitoring and controlling a real physical system. Data representative of the physical system are obtained and used to generate one or more Hamiltonians. These Hamiltonians, in turn, are used in a quantum signal processing circuit of a quantum computer to simulate imaginary time evolution of a thermal pure quantum (TPQ) state of a collection of qubits that represent a Gibbs state of the system. Optionally, a Bayesian machine may be trained based on the evolution of the TPQ state to predict behavior of the physical system over time. Classical shadow tomography is then used to provide a classical representation of a TPQ state to a classical computer, to thereby facilitate classical optimization or control of the real physical system.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 24, 2023Publication date: December 14, 2023Applicant: Cambridge Quantum Computing LimitedInventors: Luuk COOPMANS, Yuta KIKUCHI, Marcello BENEDETTI, Mattia FIORENTINI

Publication number: 20190146218Abstract: The present invention addresses the problem of providing a head-up display device having a structure such that the procurement cost of a bezel can be suppressed. A bezel part is integrally formed on a curved wall portion of an upper cover. Since the upper cover is a die-cast product, the curved wall part can be manufactured by one-time casting (die-casting) with a through-hole and the bezel part. Since the bezel part is integral with the upper cover, it is possible to reduce the procurement cost of the bezel part compared to when the bezel part is a separate part. If the bezel is configured as a separate part having a high heatproof temperature, the procurement cost of the bezel increases. However, if the bezel part is formed integrally with the case simply by partially deforming the case, as described in the present invention, it is possible to reduce the procurement cost of the bezel part.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 8, 2017Publication date: May 16, 2019Inventors: Takashi YAMAZOE, Yuta KIKUCHI, Toru MURASAWA, Shinichi TANAKA, Maiko SAITO, Yuya UTO
