The benchmark tests show that the noise-free realization of QA can significantly outperform state-of-the-art classical algorithms. Quantum annealing (QA) is a cutting-edge algorithm that leverages the ...

Quantum annealing (QA) can be competitive to classical algorithms in optimizing continuous-variable functions when running on appropriate hardware, show researchers from Tokyo Tech. By comparing the ...

Abstract: The ant colony algorithm has been successfully used to solve discrete problems. However, its discrete nature restricts applications to the continuous domains. In this paper, we introduce two ...

Abstract: Complex optimization problems, especially those encountered in real-life scenarios, pose significant challenges due to their multifaceted nature and the involvement of numerous variables. In ...
