Background
  • Burke Fellow at Caltech, working on the (quantum || classical) algorithmic implications of (quantum || classical) spin glass theory. Some of his past research applied these techniques to quantum machine learning algorithms, which he showed generally fail to train due to a proliferation of poor local minima in their optimization landscapes.
