Quantum Machine Learning and Optimisation in Finance
Drive financial innovation with quantum-powered algorithms and optimisation strategies
Description
As quantum machine learning (QML) continues to evolve, many professionals struggle to apply its powerful algorithms to real-world problems using noisy intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) hardware. This book bridges that gap by focusing on hands-on QML applications tailored to NISQ systems, moving beyond the traditional textbook approaches that explore standard algorithms like Shor's and Grover's, which lie beyond current NISQ capabilities.
