Prior efforts to develop hardware for optimization problems have involved Ising machines, a category of hardware solvers that incorporate the Ising model to find the absolute or approximate “ground ...

FICO: Global analytics software leader FICO today announced that the 2024 FICO ® Xpress Best Paper Award went to a team that developed an algorithm for finding solutions to difficult optimization ...

Mathematical optimization is a problem-solving technology. It automatically generates solutions to your business problems, which you can use to help you make the best possible business decisions.

The big difference is that the formal mathematics behind solving maximum weight independent set problems is much more thoroughly worked out. But, with the new paper, the parallels go a bit deeper.

Using IBM's Qiskit optimization module, which was released last year to assist developers in building quantum optimization algorithms, the team tested various quantum algorithms labeled with ...
