Optimizing continuous-variable functions with quantum annealing

Credit: Tokyo Tech

Quantum annealing (QA) is a cutting-edge algorithm that leverages the unique properties of quantum computing to tackle complex combinatorial optimization problems (a class of mathematical problems dealing with discrete-variable functions).

Quantum computers use the rules of quantum physics to solve such problems potentially faster than classical computers. In essence, they can…
