Abstract
Provides a preliminary demonstration of several potential applications for quantum computing in finance. It showcases the use of a "Split-Step Quantum Walk" model to simulate market price distributions and frames challenges such as "portfolio optimization" and "currency arbitrage" as Quadratic Unconstrained Binary Optimization (QUBO) problems for quantum solvers. These examples serve to illustrate how various quantum and quantum-inspired methods can be applied to financial challenges, offering a conceptual validation and a glimpse into the future development of this technology within the industry.Biography
I am an Assistant Professor at Chung Yuan Christian University, where I lead the Quantum Information Center. With a solid background in physics from National Taiwan University and a focus on quantum computing, my research is centered on developing innovative quantum algorithms for finance, quantum machine learning, and quantum walks. I have actively contributed to advancing quantum-inspired computational methods to address high-value challenges in both financial analytics and machine learning. In addition to my research endeavors, I teach courses spanning machine learning, deep learning, artificial intelligence, and related fields, aiming to foster a new generation of innovators in quantum technologies.
