Abstract

See full text

Quantum processors and classical computers are employed together to solve computational problems. The classical computer may include a parameter learning module that produces a set of parameters. The quantum processor may be configured with the set of parameters to define a problem Hamiltonian and operated to perform adiabatic quantum computation and/or quantum annealing on the problem Hamiltonian to return a first solution to the problem. The parameter learning module of the classical computer may then be used to revise the set of parameters by performing a classical optimization, such as a classical heuristic optimization. The quantum processor may then be programmed with the revised set of parameters to return a revised solution to the problem. The quantum processor may include a superconducting quantum processor implementing superconducting flux qubits.
