A framework for quantum-classical integration decisions
This post was contributed by Dimitar Trenev, Sebastian Stern, Tyler Takeshita, Cedric Lin, Peter Komar, Pooja Rao, Jerome Gonthier, and Elica Kyoseva. As quantum computing matures toward fault tolerance, a pressing question faces the high-performance computing (HPC) community: why is tightly integrating quantum processors to classical supercomputing infrastructure important? Today, algorithm researchers from Amazon Web […]
Getting the Most from Your Quantum Measurements: Adaptive Shot Allocation on Amazon Braket
With current noisy quantum hardware, every quantum circuit evaluation is precious. Variational quantum algorithms like the Variational Quantum Eigensolver (VQE) require repeated estimation of expectation values of quantum observables—each requiring multiple shots, or measurements of quantum states. On today’s hardware, these shots represent a finite resource that needs to be managed carefully. Efficient shot allocation […]
