CAMBRIDGE, United Kingdom, March 1, 2021 /PRNewswire/ --Cambridge Quantum Computing (CQC) announces the publication of a research paper on the online pre-print repository arxiv ( availablehere ) that provides details of the largest ever experimental implementation of Natural Language Processing (NLP) tasks on a quantum computer.

Key Points: 
  • CAMBRIDGE, United Kingdom, March 1, 2021 /PRNewswire/ --Cambridge Quantum Computing (CQC) announces the publication of a research paper on the online pre-print repository arxiv ( availablehere ) that provides details of the largest ever experimental implementation of Natural Language Processing (NLP) tasks on a quantum computer.
  • Titled "QNLP in Practice: Running Compositional Models of Meaning on a Quantum Computer," the paper presents the first "medium-scale" implementation of common NLP tasks.
  • Completed on an IBM quantum computer, the experiment, which instantiated sentences as parameterised quantum circuits, embeds word meanings as quantum states which are "entangled" according to the grammatical structure of the sentence.
  • One of the objectives of the CQC team is to describe Quantum Natural Language Processing (QNLP) and their results in a way that is accessible to NLP researchers and practitioners thus paving the way for the NLP community to engage with a quantum encoding of language processing.
