Dear all,
I forgot about this. Anybody has anything in the pipeline? I think we are
short of something, and if so, I will reply we did not make it to this
special issue.

Dear Alan,
Happy new year! I hope you are doing well. You will recall that some time
ago Gian Giacomo Guerresci, Roger Melko, Nathan Wiebe, as co-editors, wrote
to you concerning a focus issue on "Quantum Machine Learning” to be
published this year in Quantum Science and Technology (QST). As leading
experts in this field you were specifically invited to contribute a
research article.
I recall you were initially unsure if you would be able to contribute an
article, and I wondered if you could confirm whether or not you think you
will be able to contribute an article to this focus issue. As a reminder
the submission deadline was *1 January 2018*; however, this is flexible and
can be extended in your case if necessary.
Thank you in advance for considering our invitation. Please don't hesitate
to contact me with any queries.
With best regards,
Maggie Donnelly

Thank you for the invitation,
We will try to submit something appropriate if we have a suitable paper on
the topic by the deadline.

Dear Dr Aspuru-Guzik,
The Editorial Board for the new IOP journal, 'Quantum Science and
Technology' (QST) (

has identified the topic of “Quantum Machine Learning" as a subject for a
forthcoming focus issue aimed at collecting a broad selection of
outstanding articles from the leading research groups worldwide now working
across the field. As a member of an active group working in this area, we
would like to invite you to contribute an original research paper.
This issue will form a very select resource spanning the very latest
cutting edge research in this rapidly developing field. Through a single
high quality collection, readers across the world will therefore be able to
see the current "state of the science" in an interdisciplinary area of
growing importance within quantum technology. Specific topics to be covered
will include:
- Classical machine learning applied to quantum systems
- Algorithms for machine learning on quantum hardware
- Machine learning for quantum experiments
- Frontiers in quantum machine learning
-
As co-editors, we are taking editorial responsibility for this focus issue
and are asking for contributions to be submitted *before 1 January 2018*.
You may however submit before this date in the knowledge that your article
will be processed immediately, and published without being delayed by other
contributions - articles accepted earlier will be published earlier. All
contributions should strictly report new and unpublished results that make
a significant advance in the field in line with QST's strict acceptance
criteria. As a guide for the quality expectations we refer to the journal's
mission statement as follows:
***********************************
*QST Mission Statement*:
Quantum Science and Technology (QST) is dedicated to bringing together the
latest and most important results and perspectives from across the emerging
field of quantum science and technology. The journal is highly selective
and submissions must be both essential reading for a particular sub-field,
and of interest to the broader quantum science and technology community,
with the expectation for lasting scientific and technological impact. The
Editorial Board therefore anticipate that only a small portion of
submissions to QST will be selected for publication. We feel that the
rapidly growing QST community is looking for a journal with this profile,
and one that together we can achieve.
Submissions that do not meet QST's strict acceptance criteria may be
transferred at the discretion of the journal's editors (with author
approval) to other relevant journals in the IOP portfolio for
consideration.
***********************************
Authors in QST are encouraged to submit any supplementary features
(animations, tables of data, movie clips, colour etc) relevant to their
results. For this particular focus issue you are strongly encouraged to
supplement your article with a video abstract towards raising further the
visibility of your work - full guidelines regarding this unique feature can
be found at

exciting work currently being conducted in this field and would like to
thank you in advance for considering this invitation. Please direct any
