We perform an in-depth comparison of quantum annealing with several classical optimization techniques, namely, thermal annealing, Nelder-Mead, and gradient descent. The focus of our study is large quasicontinuous potentials that must be encoded using... Read More about Quantum optimization of complex systems with a quantum annealer.

Artificial neural networks are at the heart of modern deep learning algorithms. We describe how to embed and train a general neural network in a quantum annealer without introducing any classical element in training. To implement the network on a sta...
