A computer (such as a classical computer, a quantum computer, or a hybrid quantum-classical computer) which performs PDE-constrained optimization of problems in cases in which, for a fixed {right arrow over (w)}, there is an explicit expression for {right arrow over (s)} that is either optimal or an approximation to the optimal solution. This enables embodiments of the present invention to eliminate {right arrow over (s)} from the optimization problem and to formulate the optimization as a polynomial unconstrained binary optimization (PUBO) problem.

Techniques for computing matrix operations for arbitrarily large matrices on a finite-sized hybrid analog-digital matrix processor are described. Techniques for gain adjustment in a finite-sized hybrid analog-digital matrix processor are described which enable the system to obtain higher energy efficiencies, greater physical density and improved numerical accuracy. In some embodiments, these techniques enable maximization of the predictive accuracy of a GEMM-based convolutional neural network using low-precision data representations.
