Training a Quantum Neural Network Requires Only A Small Amount of Data
By Technical Paper Link - 24 Aug, 2022 - Comments: 0

A new research paper titled "Generalization in quantum machine learning from few training data" was published by researchers at Technical University of Munich, Munich Center for Quantum Science and Technology (MCQST), Caltech, and Los Alamos National Lab. “Many people believe that quantum machine learning will require a lot of data. We have rigorously shown that for many relevant problems,... » read more

Technical Paper Round-Up: April 5
By Linda Christensen - 05 Apr, 2022 - Comments: 0

Neuromorphic chips, transistor defect detection, quantum, pellicles, BEV mobile charging, copper wire bonding, LrWPAN, batteries and superconductivity top the past week's technical papers. They also point to a rising level of government investment, and collaborations between schools that historically haven't worked closely together, including one that involves schools on different continents. ... » read more

Absence of Barren Plateaus in Quantum Convolutional Neural Networks
By Technical Paper Link - 18 Nov, 2021 - Comments: 0

Abstract:  Quantum neural networks (QNNs) have generated excitement around the possibility of efficiently analyzing quantum data. But this excitement has been tempered by the existence of exponentially vanishing gradients, known as barren plateau landscapes, for many QNN architectures. Recently, quantum convolutional neural networks (QCNNs) have been proposed, involving a sequence of convol... » read more

Quantum Random Numbers Future-Proof Encryption
By Kevin Fogarty - 01 Nov, 2018 - Comments: 0

It may be a decade or more before quantum computers become common enough that we'll find out whether "post-quantum cryptography" will stand up to genuine quantum computers. In the meantime, some quantum researchers are peeling off specific functions and turning them into products or companies so that it's possible to take advantage of the potential of quantum computers without actually havin... » read more

System Bits: April 4
By Ann Mutschler - 04 Apr, 2017 - Comments: 0

Nanodevices for extreme environments in space, on earth Researchers at the Stanford Extreme Environment Microsystems Laboratory (XLab) are on a mission to conquer conditions such as those found on Venus: a hot surface pelted with sulfuric acid rains, 480 degrees C, an atmosphere that would fry today’s electronics. By developing heat-, corrosion- and radiation-resistant electronics, the team ... » read more
