DESCRIPTION:Event Details\n\nThis talk will provide overview of the basic t
 enants of quantum computing and highlight the areas in which we hope to fi
 nd advantages. It will also provide a brief review of the leading quantum 
 computer architectures of recent years\, describing their advantages and l
 imitations. It will conclude with a discussion of the opportunities that H
 igh Performance Computing (HPC) and AI have in the quantum computing field
 \, both to improve quantum hardware and algorithms\, as well as to outperf
 orm quantum computers on the very tasks for which we hope that they excel.
 \n\nThis meeting will be held in person at the Knobbe Martens&#39; Irvine offi
 ces (2040 Main St # 14 Irvine\, CA). The doors will open at 6:30 PM for ne
 tworking. Announcements and the presentation will begin at 7:00 PM. Parkin
 g validation will be provided to attendees.\n\nAbout the Speaker\, Ms Tayl
 or Patti\n\nTaylor Patti is a senior research scientist at NVIDIA. Her res
 earch interests are all things at the intersection of quantum and classica
 l computation\, including quantum algorithms\, machine learning for quantu
 m applications\, and the efficient simulation of quantum systems. She hold

 Science\, Mathematics\, and Spanish\, as well as a Master&#39;s\n\nCo-sponsore
