Up until now, QA has almost exclusively been used to solve discrete-variable functions (functions that have discrete-valued variables). The potential of QA for optimizing continuous-variable ...

These equations are to be solved jointly with score equations from a generalized linear model for mean parameters. A class of quadratic exponential models is used to develop joint estimating equations ...

This paper addresses the problem of optimizing a function over a finite or countably infinite set of alternatives, in situations where this objective function cannot be evaluated exactly, but has to ...
