About Me

Sebastian Zajac earned his PhD in Physics at the University of Silesia in Katowice. He is currently a theoretical physicist, an assistant professor at the Decision Analysis and Support Unit at SGH Warsaw School of Economics (Poland). He is a American Physical Society member and a QPoland member. The focus of his research are Quantum Machine Learning, Real-Time analytics, mathematical machine-learning, deep-learning and physics, in particular symmetries in neutrino physics and geometry, topology and Category Theory in Quantum Mechanics, Quantum Field Theory and Quantum Computing. His latest publications center around the feature selection methods the flavour problem in the field of neutrino physics. With Piotr Sulkowski and Joanna Sulkowska they are trying to characterize RNA and protein structures by their topological characteristics called genus. The results of this work you can see on web serwer GENUS.

    18.00 - 19.00 Justyna Zawalska - Although the existing machine learning libraries, such as TensorFlow, excel at applications that require classical components, they alone cannot interact with quantum data and algorithms. For this reason, TensorFlow Quantum (TFQ) emerged as a library that integrates classical and quantum ecosystems. In my talk, I will present how to implement hybrid quantum-classical feedforward neural networks for solving a combinatorial optimization problem – the Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP) – with the use of TFQ.
