The 2nd talk of a monthly webinar series jointly hosted by Perimeter, IVADO, and Institut Courtois.
Speaker: David Kremer Garcia, AI Engineer & Lead Data Scientist, IBM Quantum, Yorktown Heights, NY, USA.
In this session, I will talk about how we are using AI to improve quantum circuit transpiling and optimization. I will show some of our recent work, where we apply AI methods such as Reinforcement Learning to different transpiling tasks and achieve a remarkable balance between speed and quality of the results. I will also talk about how we integrate these methods with other heuristics to provide "ai-enhanced transpiling" through our Qiskit Transpiler Service.
