Barren plateaus in variational quantum computing

Variational quantum computing offers a flexible computational approach with a broad range of applications. However, a key obstacle to realizing their potential is the barren plateau (BP) phenomenon. When a model exhibits a BP, its parameter optimization la ...

On-chip Germanium nanowires for hole spin qubits

Santhanu Panikar Ramanandan

The creation of a universal quantum computer that can solve complex problems beyond the reach of classical computers - the so-called "quantum supremacy" - is an open challenge. For this to become a reality, a large number of qubits should be integrated in ...

The computational perspective: A catalyst for research questions in cognitive neuroscience?

David Pascucci

Where do novel research questions come from? We suggest that identifying key computational problems and comparing solutions across domains can be one source. We exemplify this by looking at perception and action and outline how findings from one domain may ...

Interfacing with the Brain: How Nanotechnology Can Contribute

Nako Nakatsuka

Interfacing artificial devices with the human brain is the central goal of neurotechnology. Yet, our imaginations are often limited by currently available paradigms and technologies. Suggestions for brain-machine interfaces have changed over time, along wi ...
