Solution Overview

Problem

Existing methods for selecting matrix parameters for a coherent Ising machine are manually intensive, slow, and have a low success rate.

Innovation Solution

Automatically calculate matrix parameters using formulas based on an input matrix, specifically through formulas such as \( s = \sum_{i,j} J_{ij} \), \( \alpha = 0.7s + 1 \), and \( eta = 0.7ss + 1 \), to derive a target matrix \( Q = \alpha I + eta J \) for the coherent Ising machine.

1Ease of operation

If manual selection of matrix parameters is used, then engineers can adjust parameters, but the feedback speed is slow and success rate is low

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemanual parameter adjustmentVSAvoidfeedback speed
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs self-service by automatically calculating optimal matrix parameters through the formula Q = αI + βJ, where α and β are derived from the input matrix J. This eliminates the need for manual parameter adjustment by engineers and enables the system to self-determine the best parameters for solving Ising problems.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The patent applies parameter changes by transforming the input matrix J into optimized parameters α and β through mathematical relationships (α = 0.7s + 1, β = 0.7ss + 1 where s is the target parameter calculated from J). This systematic parameter transformation replaces manual trial-and-adjustment with deterministic calculation, improving both speed and success rate.

2Adaptability or versatility

If manual parameter adjustment is used, then engineers can try different combinations, but the method is prone to taking money from one pocket to pay for another and has low success rate

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveparameter combination flexibilityVSAvoidsolution success rate
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent systematically changes parameters by establishing mathematical relationships between the input matrix J and the optimized parameters α and β. Instead of arbitrary manual adjustments, the system uses deterministic formulas (α = 0.7s + 1, β = 0.7ss + 1) that guarantee optimal parameter combinations for any given input matrix, thereby improving reliability while maintaining adaptability.

Inventive Principle:

Solution Approach 2:

The system implements feedback by calculating the target parameter s from the input matrix J (s = ΣJij/Σ|Jij|) and using this feedback to determine the optimal parameters α and β. This closed-loop approach ensures that parameter selection is based on actual input characteristics rather than manual guessing, improving solution success rate.

Solution Approach 1:

The patent simplifies calculation complexity by establishing direct linear relationships between input matrix properties and output parameters. The formulas α = 0.7s + 1 and β = 0.7ss + 1 are simple polynomial transformations that can be efficiently computed, achieving high productivity without requiring complex algorithms or iterative optimization processes.
