IBM and Kipu Quantum Demonstrate Runtime Gains in Optimization Using Hybrid Algorithm on IBM Heron QPU

IBM and Kipu Quantum have published new experimental results showing that a hybrid quantum algorithm—Branch-and-Bound Digitized Counterdiabatic Quantum Optimization (BBB-DCQO)—can outperform both classical and quantum annealing methods in solving higher-order unconstrained binary optimization (HUBO) problems. The algorithm, tailored specifically to IBM’s superconducting hardware and the HUBO problem class, was run on the IBM Heron quantum […]
