We propose a method to formulate the Hamiltonian of finding H-matrix problem and address its implementation limitation on existing quantum annealing machine (QAM) that allows up to quadratic terms, whereas the problem naturally introduces higher order ones. For an M-order H-matrix, such a limitation increases the number of variables from M2 to (M3 + M2 − M)/2, which makes the formulation of the Hamiltonian too exhaustive to do by hand. We use symbolic computing techniques to manage this problem. Three related cases are discussed: (1) finding N < M orthogonal binary vectors, (2) finding M-orthogonal binary vectors, which is equivalent to finding a H-matrix, and (3) finding N-deleted vectors of an M-order H-matrix. Solutions of the problems by a 2-body simulated annealing software and by an actual quantum annealing hardware are also discussed.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=".vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}"][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title="Author keywords" size="size-sm" text_align="text-left"][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=".vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}"][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title="Indexed keywords" size="size-sm" text_align="text-left"][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=".vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}"][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title="Funding details" size="size-sm" text_align="text-left"][vc_column_text]This research is partially funded by P3MI-ITB Grant of Research 2018, MDR Inc., Tokyo, Japan, and the Indonesian Ministry of Research, Technology and Higher Education under WCU Program managed by Institut Teknologi Bandung.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=".vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}"][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title="DOI" size="size-sm" text_align="text-left"][vc_column_text]https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-019-50473-w[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]Widget Plumx[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
