Coherent Ising machines (CIMs) represent an innovative class of computing systems that leverage networks of coupled oscillators—often realised using optical, electronic or quantum circuits—to solve ...

For decades, the solution to harder problems has been ‘build a bigger computer’— but ...

(a) This diagram depicts fully connected neurons or spins, where each element interacts with every other. (b) Although each spin can only take one of two values, the activation function used to update ...

A low-energy challenger to the quantum computer also works at room temperature. The researchers have shown that information can be transmitted using magnetic wave motion in complex networks. A ...

A team of researchers at Queen's University has developed a powerful new kind of computing machine that uses light to take on complex problems such as protein folding (for drug discovery) and number ...

The Ising model in physics describes how subatomic particle spins interact and arrange themselves inside a magnetic material. Ising machines, derived from the model, are one example of the emerging ...

Researchers at the NTT Research Physics and Informatics (PHI) Lab and Tohoku University co-author paper outlining the capabilities of single photon Coherent Ising Machines (CIM). Paper reports ...

Quantum computers and Ising machines are useful for solving so-called combinatorial optimisation problems, where the aim is to produce the best guess rather than the exact answer to a problem. Many AI ...

Published in Nature, the study details the first large-scale demonstration of a photonic Ising machine operating without the ...

MONTREAL, Nov. 01, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Imagine being able to solve billion parameter optimization problems with hundreds of thousands of variables in a matter of seconds. There are more possible ...

McGill and Queen's University researchers have built an improved version of a computer that uses light to solve extremely hard problems more quickly ...
