Demonstrating Quantum Advantage

Some description of how quantum computing can improve the performance of algorithms using sensors and classical methods. Here a short intro, much more at the link.

Engineers Demonstrate Quantum Advantage

University of Arizona News, Emily Dieckman, June 1, 2021

Engineers at the University of Arizona (UArizona) demonstrated an advantage of quantum computing over classical computing by combining classical and quantum approaches. The engineers utilized three entanglement-equipped sensors to classify the average amplitude and angle of radio frequency signals. Entanglement let the sensors share information with each other, enhancing their sensitivity while reducing error, and enabling them to assess global properties rather than collect data only about specific system elements. UArizona's Zheshen Zhang said, "A lot of algorithms consider data stored on a computer disk, and then convert that into a quantum system, which takes time and effort. Our system works on a different problem by evaluating physical processes that are happening in real time." ... '
