Is VQA quicker than classical machine learning?
Variational Quantum Algorithm (VQA) is a kind of quantum algorithm corresponding to classical machine learning. Unlike the square speed up of Grover's algorithm, the circuit in VQA does not seem to ...

Optical quantum computers VS Superconducting quantum computers VS Electron-spin quantum computers
One of the main problems of superconducting quantum computers is that it is necessary to maintain a very low temperature (near absolute zero).
Such cooling is very expensive and complex.
Why, then, ...
