SUMMARY:Seeking Quantum Supremacy with Numerical Simulation
DESCRIPTION:Cyril ALLOUCHE (Atos, Bull)\n\nQuantum Computing promises to t
 ackle computations which are intractable for today’s supercomputers. Among
  the expected beneficiaries: numerical analysis, artificial intelligence, 
 chemistry... Though, most of the known quantum algorithms underlying these
  applications require *perfect* qubits. That is fully connected, unlimited
  coherence time, perfect fidelity. Designing such ideal qubits is a tremen
 dous challenge for Science and Technology, and could require a decade or m
 ore. In the meantime, the “NISQ” era (Noisy-Intermediate-Scale-Quantum) is
  coming, with devices with 100+ *imperfect* qubits. To take the most of th
 ese intermediate hardwares, brand new algorithms must be invented, as nois
 e-tolerant and resource-efficient as possible. Numerical modeling and simu
 lation of these imperfect qubits can provide an invaluable tool to take on
  this NISQ challenge. The Atos Quantum Learning Machine (QLM) embeds the s
 tate of the art of these techniques. I will introduce, and live-demo them 
 during the talk, on a real and self-illustrating use case.\n\nTag: Archite
