The Extreme Light Infrastructure – Nuclear Physics (ELI NP) facility in Măgurele, Romania, operates the world’s most powerful laser system, capable of delivering two 10-PW pulses per minute. This facility is at the forefront of cutting-edge research in laser-driven particle acceleration and high-energy nuclear physics. To advance these fields, our group relies extensively on large-scale...
Holographic elements are widely used in personal identification documents (e.g., ID cards, passports) and secure items (e.g., banknotes) to prevent counterfeiting. However, their reliable verification remains challenging due to lighting-dependent visual variability and the absence of scalable feature extraction methods.
To address this, we present a multi-stage deep learning pipeline for...
Quantum computing is currently emerging as a possibly useful paradigm for solving highly complex computational problems. Current quantum computers are unfortunately too noisy to provide sufficient results, so quantum-classical hybrid algorithms emerged as a solution. Variational Quantum Deflation (VQD) has gained significant attention for addressing challenges in quantum chemistry, material...
