[ENTRY] Peptide folding pipeline for Near-term Quantum Computing: Coined Szegedy Quantum Walk combined with Variational Quantum Subspace Expansion (VQSE)

[MQS-mark]

Team Name:

MQS

Project Description:

A quantum computing based pipeline for peptide folding and energy studies:

• Prediction of the torsion angles between amino acids of dipeptides with a coined Szegedy Quantum Walk algorithm.

• Finding the ground state and excited state energies by solving the found structure from the quantum walk via VQSE to check for stable and metastable conformational states.

Thanks for the submission! We hope you have enjoyed participating in QHack :smiley:

We will be assessing the entries and contacting the winners separately. Winners will be publicly announced sometime in the next month.

We will also be freezing the GitHub repo as we sort through the submitted projects, so you will not be able to update this submission.
