I-X Research Presentations: Roberto Bondesan

Talk Title

Learning and Inference in the Quantum World

Talk Summary

Nature at the fundamental level can be described by quantum mechanics, and many of the scientifically and technologically relevant questions we want to answer – such as what the best drug is to cure a disease or what is the best catalyst to store renewable energy – require solving learning and inference problems in the quantum world. In this talk, my team and I will discuss how these problems differ from their classical counterparts and the work we are doing to tackle these questions.

Speakers

Dr Roberto Bondesan, Štěpán Šmíd, and Viktor Ohanesian

Speaker Bio
