The first is that their construction relies on a method where (1) the spins used to simulate a target Ising model are a subset of those taken in their universal model based on SAT and (2) that to make a correspondence between the energy levels in the universal mode and the…&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/1406.5955/"&gt;Paper and discussion history&lt;/a&gt;.
