Portfolio selection with a quantum optimiser
Pick the best shares from a small set with QAOA and compare it honestly with classical methods.
The brief
Choosing which shares to hold is a hard combinatorial problem, and quantum optimisers are tried on it. Formulate a small portfolio selection as a QUBO problem, solve it with QAOA on a simulator, and compare with brute force and a classical solver on quality and run time. Good looks like: correct formulation, results across several problem sizes, and an honest conclusion about whether there is any advantage today.
What you will build
- Formulate portfolio selection as a QUBO
- Solve small cases exactly as a reference
- Implement QAOA with a simulator
- Tune the circuit depth and optimiser
- Compare with a classical solver
- Write an honest conclusion
