      When reinforcement learning meets quantum computing 1h

      Abstract: Recently, reinforcement learning (RL) has demonstrated various applications with superhuman performance such as mastering the game of Go. Meanwhile, the development of quantum computing hardware shed light on building practical quantum applications to tackle previously unsolved problems. What will happen if we combine these two fascinating techniques? In this talk, I will present the recent progress in quantum RL as well as using classical RL to help certain tasks in quantum computing.
