This paper proposes an automated quantum circuit synthesis approach, using a genetic algorithm. We consider the circuit as a successive rippling of the so-called gate sections; also, the usage of a database is proposed in order to specify the gates that will be used in the synthesis process. Details are presented for an appropriate comparison with previous approaches, along with experimental re...

We introduce a multistate framework for Fragment Molecular Orbital (FMO) quantum mechanical calculations and implement it in the context of protonated water clusters. The purpose of the framework is to address issues of nonuniqueness and dynamic fragmentation in FMO as well as other related fragment methods. We demonstrate that our new approach, Fragment Molecular Orbital Multistate Reactive Mo...

This study investigated the identification of facial expressions of emotion in currently nondepressed participants who had a history of recurrent depressive episodes (recurrent major depression; RMD) and never-depressed control participants (CTL). Following a negative mood induction, participants were presented with faces whose expressions slowly changed from neutral to full intensity. Identifi...

The aim of this exercise session is to get acquainted with the idea of kernel methods. As usual, for all exercises you need to write a brief explanation and, for most of them, also a short piece of code demonstrating the result. You can submit your whole solution as a single decently commented R or Rmd file, provided it is sequentially readable and/or executable. We shall use the kernlab R pack...
