Abuzer YakaryilmazWe start with a discussion on computational problems and algorithms. We define a generic form of decision problems, and then introduce deterministic finite automaton (DFA) as a basic decider. After having a few examples on the DFAs with discussions on their limitations, we introduce their probabilistic and quantum variants. We present a representative algorithm for each of these variants, followed by a discussion on the quantum advantages in finite automata settings. We shortly review the recent implementations of QFA algorithms on real quantum hardware.

We are pleased to congratulate our employees, Özlem Salehi and Adam Glos for winning the top prize in an international programming competition organized by Classiq. Adam i Özlem got the best score and created a quantum program for a task in which the problem was to solve Kakuro, a mathematical transliteration of a crossword puzzle. A detailed discussion of the task, along with a description of the proposed solution has been made available by the contest organizers.

Weronika Westwańska, ING Bank ŚląskiThe topic of the talk concerns an innovative approach in the preparation of data used for training of convolutional neural networks for segmentation of color images. The problem of selecting training data and acquiring enough of them, necessary to obtain a model with the highest possible predictive accuracy, is an important issue in the topic of neural networks. Incorrect approach to it can cause that even the best prepared network architecture will not be able to generate a model that will work with satisfactory accuracy.

Palash Pandya, Uniwersystet GdańskiGilbert proposed an iterative algorithm for bounding the distance between a given point and a convex set. We apply the Gilbert's algorithm with a few modifications and simplifications to get an upper bound on the Hilbert-Schmidt distance between a given state and the set of separable states. While Hilbert-Schmidt distance does not form a proper entanglement measure, it can nevertheless be used as a very robust indicator of the amount of entanglement.
