EFFICIENT ANNEALING SCHEDULING FOR DECOMPOSITION METHODS BASED ON SUBPROBLEM SIMILARITY CRITERIA

Resumen de: US20260311025A1

Selecting annealing schedules is disclosed. In a training phase, a model is trained using a scheduling dataset storing tuples of an annealing schedule, a problem, hardware properties. The tuples are generated by iteratively solving problems from a problem dataset using different annealing schedules. After reaching a termination criterion, the best annealing schedule is included in a tuple for the problem and stored in the scheduling dataset. In an inference phase, a problem is decomposed into subproblems that are then clustered. The model is used to select or infer an annealing schedule for representative subproblems selected from each of the clusters. The inferred annealing schedules assigned to the representative subproblems are used for the subproblems in the corresponding clusters. The subproblems are solved in quantum annealers and merged to determine a solution to the original problem.
