EOSlib, Version 3

Equilibrium thermodynamics underpins many of the technologies used throughout theoretical physics, yet verification of the various theoretical models in the open literature remains challenging. EOSlib provides a single, consistent, verifiable implementation of these models, in a single, easy-to-use software package. It consists of three parts: a software library implementing various published equation-of-state (EOS) models; a database of fitting parameters for various materials for these models; and a number of useful utility functions for simplifying thermodynamic calculations such as computing Hugoniot curves or Riemann problem solutions. Ready availability of this library will enable reliable code-to- code testing of equation-of-state implementations, as well as a starting point for more rigorous verification work. EOSlib also provides a single, consistent API for its analytic and tabular EOS models, which simplifies the process of comparing models for a particular application.

UQ Toolkit v 2.0

The Uncertainty Quantification (UQ) Toolkit is a software library for the characterizaton and propagation of uncertainties in computational models. For the characterization of uncertainties, Bayesian inference tools are provided to infer uncertain model parameters, as well as Bayesian compressive sensing methods for discovering sparse representations of high-dimensional input-output response surfaces, and also Karhunen-Loève expansions for representing stochastic processes. Uncertain parameters are treated as random variables and represented with Polynomial Chaos expansions (PCEs). The library implements several spectral basis function types (e.g. Hermite basis functions in terms of Gaussian random variables or Legendre basis functions in terms of uniform random variables) that can be used to represent random variables with PCEs. For propagation of uncertainty, tools are provided to propagate PCEs that describe the input uncertainty through the computational model using either intrusive methods (Galerkin projection of equations onto basis functions) or non-intrusive methods (perform deterministic operation at sampled values of the random values and project the obtained results onto basis functions).

Whetstone v.0.9.2

Whetstone is a deep learning software library for spiking/binary threshold neuromorphic hardware. Built to integrate with Keras models, Whetstone provides a collection of layers, callbacks, and utility functions designed to allow the training of integrate-and-fire neurons rather than traditional analog activation functions (e.g. rectified linear units). Generally, training a network for neuromorphic hardware is challenging due to the discontinuity of the activation function. Whetstone overcomes this challenge by using ever-closer continuous approximations of a threshold activation, modified during training time. This allows rapid and consistent training for ultra-low powered neuromorphic hardware.

Architecture for Quantum Time-dependent Circuits (ArQTIC) v1.0

ArQTiC is a domain-specific full-stack software package built for the dynamic simulations of materials on quantum computers. Its main contributions include providing a software library for high-level programming of such simulations on quantum computers, and providing post-processing capabilities that allow users to more efficiently analyze results from the quantum computer. Paired with the power to optimize and execute quantum circuits, ArQTiC opens the field of dynamic materials simulations on quantum computers to a broader community of scientists from a wider range of domain sciences, paving the way for accelerated progress towards physical quantum supremacy.

Quandary

Quandary numerically simulates and optimizes the time-evolution of open quantum systems. The underlying dynamics are modelled by Lindblad's master equation, a linear ordinary differential equation (ODE) describing quantum systems interacting with the environment. Quandary solves this ODE numerically by applying a time-stepping integration scheme, and utilizes a gradient-based optimization approach to determine optimal control pulses that drive the quantum system to a desired target state. Two optimization objectives are considered: (a) Unitary gate optimization that finds controls to realize a unitary gate transformation, and (b) optimal reset that aims to drive the quantum system to the ground states. Gradient-based optimization schemes utilizing Petsc's Tao optimization package are applied to generate control pulses that minimize the respective measure. To evaluate the gradient of the objective function, the discrete adjoint method is used while leveraging techniques from Algorithmic Differentiation to produce exact and consistent gradients. To mitigate excessive execution run times, the software can be build together with the XBraid software library which provides a parallelization strategy to distribute the time-evolution of the underlying dynamics onto multiple processor.
