论文摘要
量子计算是一种新兴技术,可以承诺各种可能的用例。该承诺主要基于未来十年不可能可行的算法。对于近期应用程序,需要根据可用的硬件仔细量身定制量子软件。在本文中,我们开始探讨近期量子计算机是否可以提供用于创建和实施计算机游戏的工具。地缘政治地图的程序生成及其相关历史被认为是一个激励人物。这是通过编码非常适合近期设备的量子程序中各国的基本决策制定过程来执行的。鉴于程序生成领域内量子计算的新颖性,我们还提供了涉及的基本概念的介绍。
Quantum computation is an emerging technology that promises a wide range of possible use cases. This promise is primarily based on algorithms that are unlikely to be viable over the coming decade. For near-term applications, quantum software needs to be carefully tailored to the hardware available. In this paper, we begin to explore whether near-term quantum computers could provide tools that are useful in the creation and implementation of computer games. The procedural generation of geopolitical maps and their associated history is considered as a motivating example. This is performed by encoding a rudimentary decision making process for the nations within a quantum procedure that is well-suited to near-term devices. Given the novelty of quantum computing within the field of procedural generation, we also provide an introduction to the basic concepts involved.
