Optimization of robot trajectory planning with nature-inspired and hybrid quantum algorithms

Introduction The problem of robot motion planning is pervasive across many industry verticals, including (for example) automotive, manufacturing, and logistics. In the automotive industry, robotic path optimization problems can be found across the value chain in body shops, paint shops, assembly, and logistics, among others [1]. Typically, hundreds of robots operate in a single plant […]

Using D-Wave Leap from the AWS Marketplace with Amazon Braket Notebooks and Braket SDK

Starting today, access to D-Wave products and services has fully transitioned to the AWS Marketplace, and customers can no longer access the D-Wave 2000Q and Advantage systems via Amazon Braket, the cloud computing service of AWS. In this blog, we will show how you can continue to use the Amazon Braket SDK to describe quantum […]

Combinatorial Optimization with Physics-Inspired Graph Neural Networks

Combinatorial optimization problems, such as the traveling salesman problem where we are looking for an optimal path with a discrete number of variables, are pervasive across science and industry. Practical (and yet notoriously challenging) applications can be found in virtually every industry, such as transportation and logistics, telecommunications, and finance. For example, optimization algorithms help […]

Community Detection using Hybrid Quantum Annealing on Amazon Braket – Part 2

Implementing a Recommendation Engine with Amazon Braket

In this blog post, we detail an approach to solving a feature selection problem that implements a recommendation engine using Amazon Braket – the quantum computing service by Amazon Web Services. Our approach tackles the “cold-start” problem that recommendation systems face, produces a solution comparable with traditional approaches, and reaches the required levels of accuracy […]
