QuantumGEP: Gene Expression Programming for Quantum Computing

ORAL

Abstract

We are designing and implementing QuantumGEP [1]: a scalable artificial intelligence software generator to construct quantum circuits that output the ground state of a Hamiltonian when applied to an initial state. QuantumGEP relies on gene expression programming (GEP) [2] and this talk focuses on advanced features, including automatically defined functions, multiple genes, and the chromosome.
