Agnostic benchmarking through Quantum Amplitude Estimation

Quantum technology is advancing rapidly, particularly Noisy Intermediate Scale Quantum (NISQ) systems. With their increasing accessibility and industry interest, there’s a need to measure their performance, especially in the presence of non-Markovian noise. Currently, error correction methods are in development, and information on Quantum Processing Unit (QPU) performance is scarce. Our research addresses this by […]

Genome Tracer: Microbial Genomic Network Analysis to Understand, Monitor, and Mitigate Pathogen Transmission in Animals

Infectious diseases in animals can cause many problems such as impacting the economy, harming wildlife and the environment, food security, and even making people sick (zoonoses). Because of issues like pollution, climate change, and agricultural intensification, we expect these diseases to happen more often and to be worse over time. So, it is very important […]
