lambeq

[Bob Coecke <bob.coecke@cs.ox.ac.uk>]

Today we at Cambridge Quantum Ltd. are making lambeq available, a free-for-all open-source software development kit that will enable you to transform natural language either in string diagrams, or much cooler, quantum circuits that can go on existing quantum computers — we do this all the time, and now everyone else can do that too.  It’s  jointly released with the Merck Group.

This 1st version of lambeq, named after the linguist-mathematician and friend of many here Jim Lambek, is only a 1st step towards what we like to call Compositional Intelligence.  It draws from the compositional mathematics that we used in the pictorial/categorical quantum formalism from our book Picturing Quantum Processes.
