US Patent Issued to INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES on July 7 for "Ahead-of-time gate-fusion transpilation for simulation" (Japanese, American Inventors)

ALEXANDRIA, Va., July 7 -- United States Patent no. 12,675,718, issued on July 7, was assigned to INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES Corp. (Armonk, N.Y.).

"Ahead-of-time gate-fusion transpilation for simulation" was invented by Hiroshi Horii (Tokyo) and Christopher James Wood (Long Island City, N.Y.).

According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "A computer-implemented method of gate-fusion transpilation for a simulation operation includes receiving a quantum circuit data representing a quantum circuit. A first quantum gate manipulates a state of a qubit in the quantum circuit. A measure gate is configured to measure the state of the qubit. The quantum circuit data is compiled into a format compatible with the s...
