ALEXANDRIA, Va., May 5 -- United States Patent no. 12,619,677, issued on May 5, was assigned to ORCA Computing Ltd. (London).
"Binary optimization using shallow boson sampling" was invented by Hugo Wallner (London) and Kamil Bradler (Toronto).
According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "The present disclosure describes a system with a boson sampler that generates an output bosonic state by performing a transformation on an input bosonic state and produces measurement outcomes indicating the presence or absence of bosons in output modes. A controller of the system receives these measurement outcomes, generates binary sequences based on the presence or absence of bosons, and determines a solution to a binary ...
