QWebinars, QWorld
We invite you to watch the recording from the first Q&A session in the QWebinar series! Our first guest was Scott Aaronson, one of the best-known scientists in quantum computing and complexity theory, also known with his most popular blog "Shtetl-Optimized". In this amazing Q&A session, Scott answered the questions prepared by the moderators and also from the participants on quantum computing from the 80s to 20s. We thank Andris Ambainis, one of the world's leading experts on quantum algorithms, for being our special guest moderator!

Workshop Online for high school students!

QJunior, QWorkshop, QWorld, Workshop
We are pleased to announce that our online workshop “Quantum Computing and Programming” for juniors will start this Saturday (July 4, 2020). Our workshop is dedicated to the high school students who are 14 years old or older. During the workshop, we use the tutorial “Bronze” prepared by QWorld. It is a collection of Jupyter notebooks and each notebook has a couple of programming tasks to be solved by the participants. We use python to code our quantum programs. The workshop leader: Dr. Abuzer Yakaryilmaz (QWorld, QLatvia, and University of Latvia)QMentors: Viktorija Leimane (QLatvia) and Laine Strankale (QLatvia) Check our QBronze page for further details! The workshop is conducted by QWorld and co-organized by University of Latvia, University of Namibia, University of Turku, and Aion.

Quantum Machine Learning & PennyLane

Quantum Machine Learning & PennyLane

QWebinars, QWorld
In the latest QWebinar, we will host Maria Schuld with her lecture "Quantum Machine Learning & PennyLane." She will talk about different aspects of “variational quantum machine learning algorithms”, including their role in the development of near-term quantum technologies, their interpretation as a cross-breed of neural networks and support vector machines, and strategies of fitting the quantum model to data. As a practical implementation, she will show how to use the open-source software framework “PennyLane” to integrate quantum circuits with machine learning libraries such as PyTorch and Tensorflow. The QWebinar will start at 18:00 (CEST) on June 17, 2020. Moderators: Abuzer Yakaryilmaz (QWorld & QLatvia) and Ayşin Taşdelen (QTurkey)Organizers: Abuzer Yakaryilmaz (QWorld & QLatvia) and Agnieszka Wolska (QWorld) About Maria: Maria Schuld works as a researcher for the Toronto-based quantum…

Quantum Story | QuTip and Unitary Fund

QWebinars
In this QWebinar, we will have Nathan Shammah. He will share his personal stories on quantum software and talk about his involvement with the quantum toolbox QuTip and non-profit organization Unitary Fund. The QWebinar will start at 18:00 (Central European Time) on May 13, 2020. Moderators: Abuzer Yakaryilmaz (QWorld & QLatvia) and Zoltán Zimborás (QWorld & QHungary) From Nathan: In this talk, I'll speak about open source in science and specifically in quantum science. I'll provide my personal account, that brought me from being a user of scientific software packages to a developer and maintainer. I recently joined Unitary Fund, a non-profit organization where I help support the quantum-tech open source ecosystem and develop software for research on error mitigation with an extraordinary technical team.
