USRA’s Research Institute for Advanced Computer Science (RIACS) operates a Quantum Artificial Intelligence Lab at NASA’s Ames Research Center that conducts strategic multi-disciplinary, integrative research and science that supports NASA’s long-term mission requirements. Research focuses on testing and evaluating emerging quantum hardware, investigations of quantum mechanisms that may be used to provide a quantum advantage, development of new algorithms and software for quantum computing, and application of quantum computing to a range of real-world problems involving planning and scheduling, machine learning, and fault diagnostics. The team works in partnership with a number of organizations from academia, industry and the U.S. Government.
Position Summary:
The Interdisciplinary Scientist will develop and examine state-of-the-art quantum and classical machine learning models for Environmental Sustainability and Governance (ESG) applications. The scientist will investigate hybrid quantum image-to-image translation methods for satellite images and hybrid quantum physics informed neural networks or similar architectures (e.g. DeepONets, Fourier Neural Operators) for solving direct and inverse problems in ordinary or partial differential equations. They will develop and train machine learning models and perform experiments and analysis using open-satellite data sets leveraging experimental and commercial quantum computing devices and simulators. In addition, they will explore robustness of quantum or quantum-inspired hardware (e.g. Coherent Ising Machines, Digital Annealers) for best practice programming and illuminate inner workings within these algorithms to better understand mechanisms used to provide quantum computational advantage. Example research problems include:
