Title:
Quantum Neuromorphic Computing with Near-Term Intermediate Scale Quantum Devices
Agreement Number:
1002896
Agreement Value:
$231,000.00
Agreement Date:
Mar 22, 2023 - Mar 31, 2026
Description:
The project team will develop a brain-inspired approach to quantum computing, quantum reservoir computing, which leverages the dynamics of a complex quantum system (the reservoir) to perform computations, and which promises to be well suited for near-term intermediate scale quantum (NISQ) devices. Two different approaches will be explored, one based on interacting spin networks and one based on dynamics generated by measurements. The team will systematically search for quantum advantage by quantifying ‘quantumness’ and by jointly optimizing tasks and readout approaches.
Organization:
National Research Council Canada
Expected Results:
In the short term, anticipated outcomes will be strengthened collaborations across industry, academia, and government to support research excellence. In the medium term, anticipated outcomes will be the development of new and potentially disruptive technologies with collaborators. In the long term, find collaborative solutions to public policy challenges and create stronger innovation systems.
