Marito: Structuring and Building Open Multilingual Terminologies for South African NLP
The critical lack of structured terminological data for South Africa's official languages hampers progress in multilingual NLP, despite the existence of numerous government and academic terminology lists. These valuable assets remain fragmented and locked in non-machine-readable formats, rendering them unusable for computational research and development. \emph{Marito} addresses this challenge by systematically aggregating, cleaning, and standardising these scattered resources into open, interop…

Black-box optimization using factorization and Ising machines
Black-box optimization (BBO) is used in materials design, drug discovery, and hyperparameter tuning in machine learning. The world is experiencing several of these problems. In this review, a factorization machine with quantum annealing or with quadratic-optimization annealing (FMQA) algorithm to realize fast computations of BBO using Ising machines (IMs) is discussed. The FMQA algorithm uses a factorization machine (FM) as a surrogate model for BBO. The FM model can be directly transformed int…

1/2 Yhteiskuntamme tarvitsee sankareita, tyyppejä, joihin sidomme kunkin aikakauden ideaalimme ja tulevaisuus-uskomme. Niitä on ollut montaa sorttia: urheilusankareita, sankarimuotoilijoita ja -arkkitehteja, 10x-koodaajia, säveltäjäikoneja, startup-yrittäjiä, rauhanneuvottelun virtuooseja, jne... Ne sankarihahmot luodaan itse, sosiaalisella sopimuksella.
Entäs nyt? Nyt me koemme sankaripuutetta. Mistä kehittäisimme uuden ajan sankarityypit?

Tensor renormalization group approach to entanglement entropy
We propose a method to compute the entanglement entropy (EE) using the tensor renormalization group (TRG) method. The reduced density matrix of a $d$-dimensional quantum system is represented as a $(d+1)$-dimensional tensor network. We develop an explicit algorithm for $d=1$ that enables the calculation of EE for single-interval subsystems of arbitrary size. We test our method in two-dimensional tensor network of the Ising model. The central charge is obtained as $c=0.49997(8)$ for $D=96$, whic…

Performance of the Extended Ising Machine for the Quadratic Knapsack Problem
The extended Ising machine (EIM) enhances conventional Ising models, which handle only binary quadratic forms by allowing constraints through real-valued dependent variables. We address the quadratic knapsack problem (QKP), hard to solve using Ising machines when formulated as a quadratic unconstrained binary optimization (QUBO). We demonstrated the EIM's superiority by comparing it with the conventional Ising model-based approach, a commercial exact solver, and a state-of-the-art heuristic sol…

Noise resilience of deterministic analog combinatorial optimization solvers
Several continuous dynamical systems have recently been proposed as special-purpose analog computers designed to solve combinatorial optimization problems such as $k$-SAT or the Ising problem. While combinatorial optimization problems are known to be NP-hard, and thus scale, in the worst case, exponentially with the problem size, these analog solvers promise substantial speed-up and scaling advantages in finding the solution. The underlying algorithms, which can be cast in the form of different…
