Abstract
Hardware for speeding up MCMC is realized. An information processing apparatus includes a plurality of Ising chips and a controller that controls the plurality of Ising chips. Each of the plurality of Ising chips includes a plurality of units, and each of the plurality of units retains a spin state. The controller instructs one set of Ising chips among the plurality of Ising chips to compare values of spin states of corresponding units and instructs the one set of Ising chip to invert values of a portion of spins among spins having different values of spin states of the corresponding units.
