Artificial Intelligence and Quantum Information Science. Both Influence the Other.

Artificial Intelligence and Quantum Information Science. Both Influence the Other.  AI and quantum information science.  From VB… In short, a true quantum computer is still years, if not decades, away. When has that everstopped researchers? Last month, Mobileye cofounder Amnon Shashua and a team from Hebrew University in Israel published a paper in Physical Review […]

Errors in Quantum Computing, Solving the Issue

Errors in Quantum Computing, Solving the Issue Coping with Errors in Quantum Computing.  Quantum Mechanics is one of the revered branches of science, where the subject of study is about subatomic particles. With Quantum Mechanics, we have been able to study how very small particles in the world, in the range of atoms, electrons, and […]

Upgrading and Knowing Your Qubits, “logical qubits”, “error-corrected qubits”…

Upgrading and Knowing Your Qubits, “logical qubits”, “error-corrected qubits”… With the number of institutions in the race for research and development of a stable and controllable qubit, it is understandable an article of this length and depth could be written.  Thorough piece for the layperson.  Qubit.   To upgrade quantum computers, researchers look to materials […]

Silicon Qubit Fidelity and Noise

Silicon Qubit Fidelity and Noise.  Qubits appear to be the flavor this week; at least in the output from media sources.  Lack of coherence still plaguing stability of the quantum bit.  Arguably the most fundamental aspect for quantum computing.  Silicon Qubit Fidelities Approaching Incoherent Noise Limits Via Pulse Engineering.  Abstract. Spin qubits created from gate-defined […]

Quantum Technology Space Bound; Will It Survive Space?

Quantum Technology Space Bound; Will It Survive Space?  Deploying technology in space.  newelectronics.  When selecting and using electronic components in space they will need to be reliable and capable of surviving the harsh conditions they’ll experience over an extended period of time. In space components need to be able to overcome vibration imposed by the […]

U.S. GAO Establishing Tech Literacy Office for Lawmakers; 5G, Quantum Computing Slated.  Of 65 positions, 25 will be geared toward emerging technologies to include 5G and quantum computing. GAO Will Pour $15 Million Into New Tech Assessment Office in 2020.  Nextgov.  The Government Accountability Office will spend $15 million next year scaling up a new […]

“Both Quantum Computing and Deep Learning May Never Again Be the Same…”

“Both Quantum Computing and Deep Learning May Never Again Be the Same…”  Intel offers AI breakthrough in quantum computing.  ZDNet. We don’t know why deep learning forms of neural networks achieve great success on many tasks; the discipline has a paucity of theory to explain its empirical successes. As Facebook’s Yann LeCun has said, deep […]

Promising Research into Nanofabricating Fake Atoms Shows Promise in Quantum-secure Communications, Computing

University of Oregon, Center for Optical, Molecular, and Quantum Science.  Ultra-secure online communications, completely indecipherable if intercepted, are a step closer with the help of a recently published discovery by University of Oregon physicist Ben Alemán. Alemán, a member of the UO’s Center for Optical, Molecular, and Quantum Science, has made artificial atoms that work […]

Two-Dimensional (2D) Semiconductors Are Promising for Quantum Computing and Future Electronics

Two-Dimensional (2D) Semiconductors Are Promising for Quantum Computing and Future Electronics.  Michigan Tech News.   Now, researchers can convert metallic gold into semiconductor and customize the material atom-by-atom on boron nitride nanotubes. Gold is a conductive material already widely used as interconnects in electronic devices. As electronics have gotten smaller and more powerful, the semiconducting […]
