Funded Activity Summary

Using quantum artificial intelligence to bootstrap a quantum computer. This project aims to enable truly scalable engineered quantum systems. Classical methodologies to characterise and control quantum many-body systems are rapidly becoming infeasible. To achieve genuinely quantum technologies such as quantum computation, simulation and sensing requires a new type of control. This project will investigate a quantum generalisation of machine learning techniques which have revolutionised classical computing and automation. The successful development by Australian researchers of a means to automate the control of quantum technology would give Australia a competitive advantage in this emerging sector, while even a small scale device or technology that controls quantum technology would be commercial.
