QC Ware Explores Using Quantum Neural Networks to Improve Biomedical Image Analysis with Roche
QC Ware is collaborating with Roche on a research project to optimize image recognition. The project combines the leading expertise of Roche in machine learning applications for biomedical image analysis and that of QC Ware in quantum machine learning and neural networks. The project will explore the potential of quantum neural networks to improve the accuracy, efficiency, and reliability of biomedical image interpretation and analysis. The potential end benefits for patients include earlier detection of diseases and greater diagnostic accuracy. More
SheQubit, SheQuantum’s Official Mascot
Just like how qubits are the building blocks of a quantum computer, SheQubit represents building blocks of quantum computing which are the talented “Shes” who are making strides in the field of Quantum Computing. Like how 0s and 1s both simultaneously exist to make quantum computers possible, women and men are necessary to make the field of Quantum computing possible. And that is what our mascot SheQubit stands for. Do join us in welcoming SheQubit by SheQuantum! You’ll see her around more! More
Accelerating Drug Discovery – Faster Molecular Similarity Search
Fujitsu’s Digital Annealer provides an alternative to quantum computing technology, which is at present both very expensive and difficult to run. Using a digital circuit design inspired by quantum phenomena, the Digital Annealer focuses on rapidly solving complex combinatorial optimization problems without the added complications and costs typically associated with quantum computing methods.
