Very happy to finally share my work in collaboration with the @GoogleQuantumAI team, where we developed a new variant of the DMRG algorithm and used it to perform spectroscopy of transmon arrays: arxiv.org/abs/2506.24109

Oh yeah, forgot to mention that you can fiddle around with Hinton's *prized* algorithm, the restricted Boltzmann machine, with QuCumber!
github.com/PIQuIL/QuCumber
pip install qucumber
It's an RBM that does quantum state reconstruction.
Carry on.

This year’s #NobelPrize laureate in physics John Hopfield created an associative memory that can store and reconstruct images and other types of patterns in data.
The Hopfield network can store patterns and has a method for recreating them. When the network is given an incomplete or slightly distorted pattern, the method can find the stored pattern that is most similar.
