SHENZHEN, China, May 16, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- MicroCloud Hologram Inc. (NASDAQ: HOLO), (“HOLO” or the "Company"), a technology service provider, announced the development of a neural network-based quantum-assisted unsupervised data clustering technology, utilizing a hybrid quantum-classical algorithm framework. This framework integrates the classical self-organizing feature map (SOM) neural network with the powerful capabilities of quantum computing, enabling efficient data clustering in an unsupervised manner.

The Self-Organizing Feature Map (SOM) is an unsupervised learning neural network model widely used in fields such as data clustering, dimensionality reduction, and data visualization. Its core concept involves mapping high-dimensional data from the input space to a low-dimensional topological space through a competitive learning algorithm. This process ensures that similar input data points are mapped to adjacent neurons, thereby achieving data clustering.

In classical computing, the SOM algorithm continuously adjusts weight vectors to reasonably group input data within the feature space. However, when dealing with massive datasets, the traditional SOM algorithm faces challenges related to computational complexity and storage demands.

To address the limitations of classical computing in large-scale data clustering, HOLO has introduced quantum computing into the SOM framework, developing a Quantum-Assisted Self-Organizing Feature Map (Q-SOM) model. In this model, the powerful parallel computing capabilities of quantum computing are leveraged to accelerate the weight adjustment and data point mapping processes in SOM. Through quantum parallelism, it becomes possible to process a larger volume of data in a shorter time, thereby reducing the number of computations and overall time consumption.

HOLO's technology leverages the quantum superposition and quantum entanglement properties of quantum computing, enabling the results of each clustering computation to be processed in parallel across multiple qubits. This quantum parallel computing approach not only significantly enhances computational efficiency but also demonstrates superior computational power compared to classical computing in certain scenarios.

HOLO believes that quantum computing does not entirely replace classical computing but rather works in tandem with it. In this technology, the quantum component is primarily responsible for accelerating the data point mapping and weight adjustment processes within the SOM network, while the classical component handles post-processing of results and the final decision-making for data clustering. This hybrid architecture fully exploits the respective strengths of quantum and classical computing, theoretically enabling more efficient clustering.
