How Qubits May Crack the Puzzle of Structure Prediction | HackerNoon
Briefly

The article explores the use of lattice models as a methodological framework for encoding protein structures within the realm of quantum computing. It highlights the advantages of lattice models, which allow for efficient predictions of protein configurations despite their complex, irregular structures. The author demonstrates a generic encoding methodology for lattice structures focusing on the cubic model with planar diagonals and face-centered cubic (FCC) models, offering insights into computational speedup and representing physical systems in a simplified manner. Ultimately, the goal is to enhance understanding of protein dynamics utilizing quantum computational techniques.
