量子コンピューティングの主要な概念の紹介
このコースでは、量子コンピューターを構築する動機について議論し、量子コンピューティングの重要な原理を取り扱い、いくつかの重要な量子アルゴリズムを確認します。
最後に、量子ハードウェアと新進の量子情報技術産業について簡単に確認します。
主要な概念については、必要最小限の数学とともに（いくつかは深い思考を必要としつつも）、図を用いて説明します。
Get an introduction to the key concepts of quantum computing
In this course, we will discuss the motivation for building quantum computers, cover the important principles in quantum computing, and take a look at some of the important quantum computing algorithms.
We will finish with a brief look at quantum computing hardware and the budding quantum information technology industry.
Key concepts will be explained graphically, with minimal mathematics but some deep thinking required.
※このコースは英語版もございます。英語版では海外の学習者との交流をよりお楽しみいただけます。

ポピュラーサイエンスレベルの量子コンピューティングに興味のある方、コンピューターの未来を知るために量子コンピューティングへの理解を深めたい高校生、大学生、コンピューター専門家にとって、このコースは役立つでしょう。
指数、ベクトル、正弦波、確率の基本的な概念に慣れることをお勧めします。いくつかの方程式が登場しますが、それらをできるだけ少なく、明解にするよう努めています。
数学がそこまで難しくなかったとしても、いくつかの概念は多くの受講者にとって新しいものであり、考え方の柔軟性が求められます。頭を動かす準備はいいですか？
Anyone interested in quantum computing at the “popular science” level.
High school students, college students, and computer professionals interested in developing a qualitative understanding of quantum computing in order to understand the future of computing will benefit.
We recommend that you be comfortable with exponents, vectors, sine waves and the basic concepts of probability. There are some equations, but we have endeavored to keep them as few and clear as possible.
While the mathematics is not too hard, some concepts will be new to most learners, and require some mental stretching. Be prepared to exercise your brain!

Keio University
Keio University is a private, comprehensive higher education institution located on six campuses spread across the Greater Tokyo area. It offers an environment of academic and research excellence in a wide range of fields, and includes a university hospital. Founded in 1858, it is Japan’s first modern institution of higher learning, and over the last century and a half it has established itself as a leader in Japan through its continued commitment to education, research and medicine.
Keio has its origins in the school of Western learning established by Yukichi Fukuzawa, a school which soon evolved into a major center of learning. As a highly respected educator and intellectual, Fukuzawa was one of the pioneers of modern Japan. He aspired for Keio to become a model and leader of society, stressing the importance of learning that is based on jitsugaku, or “science”. In today’s changing world, Keio upholds its founder’s spirit of science as it continues to fulfill his aspiration.
This institution is available on eLearnAfrica through partnership with FutureLearn.
