Newly published in Quantum: Sample-efficient verification of continuously-parameterized quantum gates for small quantum processors by Ryan Shaffer, Hang Ren, Emiliia Dyrenkova, Christopher G. Yale, Daniel S. Lobser, Ashlyn D. Burch, Matthew ... doi.org/10.22331/q-2023-05-0…
New in @PhysRevA: a surrogate-based optimization (SBO) technique for VQAs. The goal is to minimize an expectation value over a multi-parameter landscape. Work with Lucas Kocia and @mohansarovar. journals.aps.org/pra/abstrac…
Why is SBO relevant? 👇
Python code for the SBO optimizer is available at github.com/sandialabs/sbovqa…

Excited to announce Braket.jl, an experimental #julialang SDK for Amazon Braket, where you can build, test, and run #quantum computing experiments in Julia, using quantum computers and simulators on Amazon Braket. Check it our full blog post at forem.julialang.org/kshyatt/…!

PUT THE BALL IN PLAY.

so many people making fun of this “quantum research” internship listing that showed up on the TikTok careers page.
I get it, it’s fun to mock TikTok. but it really shouldn’t be surprising that the parent company ByteDance is interested in quantum. many big tech companies are.
excited to be helping with this!
Today is our first in-person workshop for high school teachers at the University of Maryland’s Quantum Startup Foundry! We’ll be spending the next 3 days teaching 25+ teachers about quantum computing. #UMDQuantum #letsgetspooky #welcometothequantumworld
