TNO Quantum

TNO Quantum provides generic software components aimed at facilitating the development of quantum applications.

TNO Quantum is dedicated to developing reusable software components for applying current and near-term quantum technology. Our code base is use-case driven and contains fully-functional, self-contained software components, which can be used as building blocks to enable further development of quantum applications.

Our current open-source packages focus on:

  1. Optimization

  2. Machine learning

  3. Secure communication

Furthermore, we demonstrate the usability of our tools by applying them to real-world applications.
