Norma Validates Quantum AI Algorithms on NVIDIA CUDA-Q

Norma has validated its quantum AI algorithms on the NVIDIA CUDA-Q platform, achieving computational speeds up to 73 times faster, announced in a press release. This validation was part of a joint research project with Kyung Hee University Hospital at Gangdong, focusing on drug development.

The project utilized NVIDIA's GH200 Grace Hopper Superchips to test algorithms like QLSTM, QGAN, and QCBM, which are crucial for navigating the vast chemical search space in drug discovery. The results showed that NVIDIA CUDA-Q significantly outperformed traditional CPU-based methods, with forward propagation of an 18-qubit quantum circuit being 60.14 to 73.32 times faster and backward propagation 33.69 to 41.56 times faster.

Norma's efforts demonstrate the practical applicability of quantum AI technology in drug discovery, providing valuable data for future adoption of quantum hardware across various fields. The company plans to expand performance testing of its quantum AI algorithms in collaboration with NVIDIA across sectors like healthcare.
