Sampling from probability distributions with known density functions (up to normalization) is a fundamental challenge across various scientific domains. From Bayesian uncertainty quantification to ...
Abstract: Fiber-based quantum key distribution (QKD) systems are mature and commercialized, but their integration into existing optical networks is crucial for their widespread use, in particular in ...
Quantum annealing (QA) can be competitive to classical algorithms in optimizing continuous-variable functions when running on appropriate hardware, show researchers from Tokyo Tech. By comparing the ...
Roll a die and ask students to identify the random variable. Since a die can only take on values of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6, this is a discrete random variable. Repeat ...

Probability Distribution Functions is a Python package to help in different kind of probability distributions for a Data Scientist. Probability distributions are a must know for a Data Scientist. It ...
Continuous-variable quantum key distribution offers simple, stable and easy-to-implement key distribution systems. The discrete modulation scheme further reduces the technical difficulty. The main ...
Abstract: In this work, we propose a novel procedure for deriving a discrete counterpart to a continuous probability distribution. This procedure or, better, this class of procedures, is based on an ...
