Probabilistic Ising machines (PIMs) are advanced and specialized computing systems that could tackle computationally hard problems, such as optimization or integer factorization tasks, more efficiently than classical systems. To solve problems, PIMs rely on interacting probabilistic bits (p-bits), networks of interacting units of digital information with values that randomly fluctuate between 0 and 1, but that can be biased to converge to yield desired solutions.
