Fustero, J., Palmtag, S., & Mueller, F. (2021, October 1). 2021 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON QUANTUM COMPUTING AND ENGINEERING (QCE 2021) / QUANTUM WEEK 2021.
author keywords: quantum annealing; noisy intermediate-scale quantum computing; topology graph embeddings
topics (OpenAlex): Quantum Computing Algorithms and Architecture; Quantum Information and Cryptography; Quantum-Dot Cellular Automata
TL;DR:
Applying the technique to the problem of determining an effective fuel loading pattern for nuclear reactors shows that densely mapped quantum stencils result in higher fidelity solutions of optimization problems then the sparser default solutions.
