Quantum Annealing with Ocean

This jupyter notebook is a supplementary resource to the author’s paper Annealing Quantum Computing: An Overview. The paper aims to provide an accessible overview of annealing quantum computing. We give high-level explanations of the key quantum properties that are leveraged by a quantum annealer, along with the quantum mathematical formalism involved and references for further reading.

The notebook has the following sections:

1. Ising and QUBO model

   1.1 Exact solution

   1.2 Simulated annealing

2. Problem to QUBO

   2.1 Exact solver

   2.2 Run on a quantum annealer processor

   2.3 Run on a Hybrid solver

3. Problem constrains

   3.1 Run on a Hybrid CQM solver

4. Embedding

Installation

Install requirements locally (ideally, in a virtual environment):

pip install -r requirements.txt

To run the notebook:

jupyter notebook
