Abstract :
A quantum computer employing a single quantum as a qubit executes real parallel computation. Several algorithms have been proposed for quantum computation. However, these algorithms are applicable only to a limited number of applications. Therefore, a general purpose algorithm should be studied and developed for practical use in the near future. We focus on the adiabatic evolution algorithm in order to incorporate an artificial neural network(ANN)-like method and discuss how to use this algorithm for solving an optimization problem.
