Professor, Institute for Interdisciplinary Information Sciences, Tsinghua University

Abstract:

In this talk, Prof. Duan will briefly review the status and prospects about quantum computing, with a focus on its physical implementation and potential applications. For implementation, I will use trapped ions and superconducting qubit systems as examples to explain the current achievements and the roads ahead. For application, Prof. Duan will show in particular how a quantum computer can be used for machine learning with a potential exponential speedup compared with its classical counterpart.
