Summary
Researchers led by Gorka Muñoz-Gil from the Department of Theoretical Physics, in collaboration with NVIDIA and the group of theoretical physicist Hans Briegel, have developed an AI method using machine learning generative models to automatically design efficient quantum circuits. This addresses one of the hardest open problems in quantum computing: translating quantum algorithms into optimal sequences of elementary quantum gates. The approach aims to make existing quantum computers more practically useful by automating a key bottleneck in quantum circuit design.
