Mapping quantum approximate optimization algorithm (QAOA) circuits with non-trivial connectivity in fixed-layout quantum platforms such as superconducting-based quantum processing units (QPUs) requires a process of transpilation to match the quantum circuit on the given layout. This step is critical for reducing error rates when running on noisy QPUs. [...]

Quantum master equations are widely used to describe the dynamics of open quantum systems. All these different master equations rely on specific approximations that may or may not be justified. [...]

Computational technology opens new possibilities towards understanding the complexity of the human brain, but it requires integrating measurements from different modalities and scales in anatomical context and exposing them in interoperable, actionable form. Especially with growing big data resources, accessing information from different scales and modalities coherently for visual exploration, reproducible analysis and application development remains challenging.

Comprehensive assessment of the various aspects of the brain's microstructure requires the use of complementary imaging techniques. This includes measuring the spatial distribution of cell bodies (cytoarchitecture) and nerve fibers (myeloarchitecture). [...]
