Abstract
The present disclosure provides an information processing apparatus capable of improving the accuracy of solving a problem when an annealing algorithm is executed. An information processing apparatusincludes a calculation unitand an arithmetic unit. The calculation unitcalculates at least one eigenvector of a coupling coefficient matrix including a coupling coefficient indicating a strength of interaction between each of a plurality of binary variables that indicate states of a plurality of respective spins in an Ising model, the coupling coefficient matrix being given in advance in accordance with a problem to be solved by an annealing algorithm. The arithmetic unitexecutes the annealing algorithm from an initial state set based on the at least one eigenvector.
