  The purpose of the D-Wave adiabatic quantum computer is to find a set of
qubit values that minimize its objective function. For various reasons, the set
of qubit values returned by the D-Wave has errors. This paper presents a method
of improving the results returned by the D-Wave. The method individually
modifies the qubit values returned by the D-Wave to find a set of values which
is a minimum of the objective function. That set however is not necessarily
guaranteed to be a global minimum. The method is simple and easily incorporated
into any algorithm that has direct access to the sets of values returned by the
D-Wave. Examples are also presented that demonstrate the merit of using such a
sample improvement method.
