Abstract

Techniques and a system to facilitate simulation-based optimization on a quantum computer are provided. In one example, a system includes a quantum processor. The quantum processor performs a quantum amplitude estimation process based on a probabilistic distribution associated with a decision-making problem. Furthermore, the quantum processor includes a simulator that simulates the decision-making problem based on the quantum amplitude estimation process.
