Evolving Quantum Circuits and an FPGA-based Quantum Computing Emulator

The goal of the PQLG group is to develop complete methodologies, software tools and circuits for quantum logic. Our interests are mainly in logic synthesis for quantum circuits and quantum system design [10]. Emulation of quantum circuits using standard reconfigurable FPGA technology and FPGA-based Evolvable Quantum Hardware, proposed here, are research areas not yet dealt with by other research groups. A parallel software simulator was presented in [13]

Implementing Competitive Learning in a Quantum System

Ideas from quantum computation are applied to the field of neural networks to produce competitive learning in a quantum system. The resulting quantum competitive learner has a prototype storage capacity that is exponentially greater than that of its classical counterpart. Further, empirical results from simulation of the quantum competitive learning system on real-world data sets demonstrate the quantum system’s potential for excellent performance
