The project aims to develop a strategy to drive operational efficiencies across all of Viva’s core business functions.

Quantum computers are well-suited to a subset of machine learning tasks known as supervised learning (SL). In SL, a model is trained on labelled data to generate correct labels for novel data thereafter. Robust classifiers can be achieved in SL by using the “kernel trick”, which provides a more expressive metric from a transformed point […]

Virtual and mixed reality (VR/MR) systems have burgeoned over the last couple of years with applications in healthcare, gaming, telepresence, and skills training, to name a few.
