      "summary_nl": "Quantum computers have the potential to revolutionize science, but their realization also poses complex computational challenges. This research explores how artificial intelligence (AI), specifically Knowledge Representation and Reasoning (KRR), can help. KRR enables machines to structure and process information efficiently, and we adapt it to quantum systems by developing new ways to represent quantum states and improving reasoning algorithms for quantum circuits. Our approach enhances quantum circuit simulation and optimization, paving the way for advances in quantum computing and physics. By bridging AI and quantum computing, we aim to unlock new discoveries in this rapidly evolving field.",
      "summary_en": "Quantumcomputers hebben de potentie om de wetenschap te revolutioneren, maar hun realisatie hangt af van complexe rekenkundige uitdagingen. Dit onderzoek verkent hoe kunstmatige intelligentie (AI), en specifiek Kennisrepresentatie en Redeneren (KRR), kan helpen. KRR stelt machines in staat om informatie efficiënt te structureren en verwerken. Wij passen dit toe op quantumsystemen door nieuwe methoden te ontwikkelen voor de representatie van quantumtoestanden en het verbeteren van redeneeralgoritmen voor quantumcircuits. Onze aanpak verbetert de simulatie en optimalisatie van quantumcircuits, wat de weg vrijmaakt voor vooruitgang in quantumcomputing en natuurkunde. Door AI en quantumcomputing te combineren, hopen we nieuwe ontdekkingen mogelijk te maken.",
