During this process, entangled qubits naturally evolve into the ground state of a given Hamiltonian to find the optimal vector of binary decisions for the corresponding quadratic unconstrained binary optimizatio
In this study, the performance of four quadratic unconstrained binary optimization problem solvers, namely D-Wave Hybrid Solver Service (HSS), Toshiba Simulated Bifurcation Machine (SBM), Fujitsu Digital Annealer (DA), and simulated annealing on a personal computer, was benchmarked. The problems ...
Recently, inspired by quantum annealing, many solvers specialized for unconstrained binary quadratic programming problems have been developed. For further improvement and application of these solvers, it is important to clarify the differences in their p

In [31], a hybrid quantum–classical method, which employs quantum approximation optimization algorithm (QAOA) to turn a quadratic unconstrained binary optimization (QUBO) instance into a continuous optimization problem over variational parameters β and γ, was introduced to the UC. However, this pap...
So, it may be a good candidate to be solved by quantum algorithm that can be used to solve quadratic unconstrained binary optimization (QUBO) problems. The constraint could be reformulated as a penalty term and added to the objective function, after which this QUBO could be solved by an ...
(6), when we transform the price pt to binary variables xt, equality constraints are imposed to ensure that the price can only take one choice from a set of discrete price options on a given day. The equality constraints read:As a QUBO is naturally an unconstrained opt...
Finding the minimum of such a cost function, for N bit variables, and for a discrete polynomial of degree 2, is known as a Quadratic Unconstrained Binary Optimization (QUBO) problem and is well-known to be NP-Hard. Higher-order polynomials, and higher-dimensional variables, make the problem...
