Quantum Monte Carlo and Optimization in Finance

Quantum computers are poised to revolutionize finance. In this talk, Dr. Mark Jackson will focus on two specific applications: quantum Monte Carlo, and Optimization. Mark will begin by introducing quantum computing and the state of the field and then focus on these two aspects of quantum machine learning which may produce exponentially faster trading and optimization algorithms, and is already being implemented by a number of major financial institutions.
