Active collaborations

The Heisinberg consortium is a dynamic industrial research collaboration, bringing together expertise in quantum and photonic technologies with business acumen. The consortium aims to develop a photonic combinatorial optimisation solver, and commercialise a new quantum simulator paradigm. Our group leads the development of custom algorithms to compatible with the hybrid quantum/classical experimental implementations. 

The UK Multidisciplinary Centre for Neuromorphic Systems and Computing (NeuroSYNC)  is a leading national consortium for the developing of applied research in neuromorphic technologies. Our group leads the development of unconventional classical and quantum algorithms.

ai1 Technologies is an American startup building AI and Machine Learning and security solutions for the FinTech industry. Our group collaborates with them in developing machine learning algorithms in unconventional computing platforms. 

The Analog Optical Computer (AOC), developed by our collaborators at Microsoft Research Cambridge, offers a new way of computation that has the potential to surpass state-of-the-art digital technology. Featuring a fully analog design and operating at the speed of light, AIM is designed to solve difficult optimization problems.
