Fig. 2: Energy (values of F(〈x〉)) profiles as a function of iterations.
From: Photonic counterdiabatic quantum optimization algorithm
a For the Rosenbrock function and b for the toy function (Eq. (6)) with a p = 1 ansatz for 100 different initial parameters. Solid lines show the mean energies, shaded regions depict standard error and the best instance energy profile is shown by starred and dotted lines, respectively. The inset depicts a histogram of the minimum energies achieved at the end of the iterations, with the best five instances.
