  • Shape graphs and the instantaneous inference of tactical positions in soccer

    Shape graphs and the instantaneous inference of tactical positions in soccer

    The purpose of this section is two-fold: first, we aim to build trust in our method to detect meaningful positions, and second, we exemplify how it can be used in match and opposition analysis. For concreteness and replicability, we present…

    Toward a linear-ramp QAOA protocol: evidence of a scaling advantage in solving some combinatorial optimization problems

    In this section, we describe the LR-QAOA, some properties of LR-QAOA, the combinatorial optimization problems used, the classical solvers used to compare scaling properties, and experimental details on real quantum hardware.

    LR-QAOA

    QAOA consists…
