Quantum Computing @ UniUd

Udine is Quantum too

Rule 34 of Computer Science: if it exists, then there is its quantum version.

Quantum computing is becoming more and more important in computer science. Grover and Shor algorithms are two example of the speed up that Quantum computing can give in solving problems that are untractable for classical computer science. In our laboratory we mostly focus into the theoretical foundations of Quantum Computing. For example we study the relation bewteen QC and graph theory, or the theory on Quantum Automata. (check our PUBLICATIONS page to see the last topics we are working on) Despite our theoretical approach, we are interested in any topic that can eventually be 'quantized', like Quantum Machine Learning, Quantum Criptography, ecc.

Udine supremacy in Quantum Machine Learning for Smart Cities

University of Udine, with its two teams QDine - Merlin and QDine - Arthur has won both the challenges posed by University of Cagliari in the context of the Quantum Code Challenge - Quantum Algorithms for the smart cities. QDine - Arthur team competed for the apprentice challenge, which consisted of a set of 13 problems spanning from basic quantum computing, to Quantum Machine Learning with a focus on QUBO as well. On the other hand, QDine - Merlin team has won the wizard challenge. They were asked to devise quantum machine learning algorithms to generate alerts for the community starting from real data gathered in the smart city of Cagliari. Some examples of data are pollution related measurement, unique attendance information and weather data. The solution we proposed was a temporal quantum kernel for anomaly detection to recognize anomalies in unique attendace dataset. Check out the following link for more details.
