Moscow-Tokyo Nissan and the Quantum Machine LearningProject of the Russian Quantum Center (RQC) have announced the launch of ajoint scientific and technological project in the field of quantum computingfor chemical compound modeling solutions. In the context of partnership,Project is going to create new methods of quantum systems modeling and to testthem with the use of existing quantum processors. This project is one of thefirst commercial projects in the field of quantum computing in Russia. Theamount and terms of the contract are not disclosed by the parties.

Modeling ofcomplex systems such as materials, batteries, and medicines is extremelydifficult for existing computers. The next generation of computing devices,which are quantum computers, will be able to solve such problems moreefficiently. As a result, the business will be able to find practical solutionssuch as modeling of new materials, production of devices of a new class fromsuch materials, and selection of optimal characteristics or reactions insidethese materials, which are necessary for increasing the subsequent efficiency.One of the real challenges for the industry and business is the modeling ofchemical compounds used in the batteries manufacturing process.

As part ofthe project, we are developing quantum chemistry methods using machine learningand quantum optimization. We plan to integrate the developed methods into thematerial design system, which is used today in Nissan. This will allow Nissanto unlock the huge potential of quantum computing for its tasks, and in thefuture, to achieve technological leadership, said Alexey Fedorov, Head of the Group Quantum Information Technologies RQC,Ph.D. in Theoretical Physics.

Quantumtechnologies are promising for solving many industrial challenges. Thematerials that can be created with quantum chemistry will significantlyincrease the power and capacity of batteries. As a result, we will get theopportunity to create highly efficient and environmentally-friendly transport,as well as new solutions. The future is behind these technologies and, togetherwith our partner, Russian Quantum Center, we are striving to become a pioneerin this industry, said ShigeoIbuka, Head of Nissan R&D center in Russia, Ph.D. in Physics.

In the long term,the use of quantum technologies will significantly reduce the time for thedevelopment of new materials, as well as predict their compliance with therequirements of industry and business. The RQC team will conduct research usingboth existing quantum computers and their own-developed quantum-inspiredalgorithms.

AboutRussian Quantum Center (RQC)

The RussianQuantum Center (RQC) is a non-governmental organization specializing infundamental research in the field of quantum physics and the development ofdevices and technologies based on quantum effects. The Center was founded inDecember 2010 and became one of the first residents of the Skolkovo InnovationCenter. RQC is one of the authors of the roadmap for the development of quantumtechnologies in Russia until 2024.

At the moment,RQC has more than 150 employees, 14 laboratories, and 7 spin-offs aimed at thecommercialization of the developments. In 2017, RQC developed the worlds firstquantum blockchain. RQC technologies are being actively introduced intogovernment and business structures around the world.

RQCsQuantum Machine Learning Project

RQCs Quantum Machine Learning Project is engaged in research and business-oriented projects in the field of quantum computing. The work is carried out in several directions: development of the strategy of quantum computing application and development of the QBoard quantum computing cloud platform, SimCIM simulator based on quantum-inspired algorithms, and other solutions. Some software products are already available for commercial use.
