Gaussian Boson Sampling (GBS) is a photonic sampling process whose output probabilities can be related to graph-theoretic problems, including clique finding. In this talk, I will discuss the application of GBS to the band-selection problem in hyperspectral satellite data, where the goal is to identify a reduced set of spectral bands while preserving the relevant information.
Although GBS was...
A more general version of the “plane section” algorithm from [Computer Physics Communications, 319:109913, Feb. 2026] is used to represent probability distributions for likelihood optimization. The algorithm from [Computer Physics Communications, 319:109913, Feb. 2026] was implemented in python using the pytorch library allowing gradients to be calculated with respect to the parameters of...
