Quantum processor and its use for implementing a neural network

摘要

A quantum processor comprises a first set of qubits comprising a first plurality of substantially parallel qubits; a second set of qubits comprising N successive groups of a plurality of qubits (1, 2, . . . , N), wherein N is greater than or equal to two; wherein each group of qubits comprises a plurality of substantially parallel qubits; wherein each qubit of the first plurality of substantially parallel qubits of the first set of qubits crosses substantially perpendicularly a portion of the plurality of substantially parallel qubits of a first group of the second set of qubits; wherein each qubit of any given group of the second set of qubits crosses substantially perpendicularly a portion of the plurality of substantially parallel qubits of a successive group of the second set of qubits and a plurality of couplers, each coupler for providing a communicative coupling at a crossing of two qubits.
