Quantum computing & machine learning. Data Science Łódź #16 review

Our growing interest in data science and big data led us to attend the Data Science Łódź #16 meetup. While machine learning with the use of quantum computers still technically counts as data processing, it's on a level mankind has not seen before. Read on and learn the key concepts in the field of quantum machine learning (QML). Maciej Adamiak of SoftwareMill and Adam Mickiewicz University in his informative presentation titled "Quantum-assisted machine learning" demonstrated a machine learning algorithm that combines the operating principles of a classical computer with those of a quantum computer. He also showed examples of Python source code written to run on a quantum computer. It ran on IBM cloud services with the help of a number of libraries.
