Luís Domingues Tomé Jardim Tarrataca

I am a Professor at the department of computer engineering of CEFET-RJ and a researcher at LNCC's Quantum Computing Group group in Petrópolis, Rio de Janeiro. I am interested in the possibilities brought upon by quantum computation. My research mostly focuses on questions surrounding the power of quantum computation, quantum walks, quantum graph search, quantum complexity. I am also interested in questions regarding how to map Artificial Intelligence concepts into a quantum context, from performing classical tree search, applying heuristics, graph transversal techniques and alternative search methods based on quantum space decomposition. I obtained my PhD at Instituto Superior Técnico, Portugal in 2013 under the supervision of Professor Andreas Wichert in the context of these activities.
