Overview

Participants will learn the basics of how to formulate and solve combinatorial optimization and quantum machine learning problems using Qiskit. In particular, examples will be provided of how problems can be solved using the QAOA and QML (Quantum Machine Learning) algorithms. We will provide step-by-step instructions on how to solve the problems from the ground up with as little hidden complexity as possible. Each presentation will contain a theory introduction and a hands-on session. For hands-on, we will use Jupyter notebooks posted in the tutorial’s GitHub repository. These easily customizable code snippets will allow attendees to skip straight to adapting it to their problems and apply it to their own research.

The recommended way to run the hands-on Jupyter notebooks is using the IBM Quantum Experience web interface. Please create an account here before the tutorial (you might have to create an IBM ID if you do not have one): https://​quan​tum​-com​put​ing​.ibm​.com/

We will also be providing tutorials on how to simulate quantum circuits by using Argonne-developed quantum simulator QTensor, simulate quantum network protocols using network simulator SeQUeNCe, error correction and mitigation techniques, and theory of quantum control.
