In this work, we experiment with quantum annealing and the D-Wave suite by developing a new application we call Quantum Graph Pursuit (QGP), which is a dynamic combinatorial optimization problem. We delve into two models’ formulations and their implementation on the D-Wave system, relying both on the hybrid and fully quantum settings. The final objective of our work is twofold: to solve the initial problem, finding the right trade-off between expressiveness and complexity, and to obtain and share general indications on the formulation and implementation process themselves.

Abstract

In this work, we experiment with quantum annealing and the D-Wave suite by developing a new application we call Quantum Graph Pursuit (QGP), which is a dynamic combinatorial optimization problem. We delve into two models’ formulations and their implementation on the D-Wave system, relying both on the hybrid and fully quantum settings. The final objective of our work is twofold: to solve the initial problem, finding the right trade-off between expressiveness and complexity, and to obtain and share general indications on the formulation and implementation process themselves.
