Quantum Machine Learning Revolution in Healthcare: A Systematic Review of Emerging Perspectives and Applications
Abstract
Quantum computing (QC) stands apart from traditional computing systems by employing revolutionary techniques for processing information. It leverages the power of quantum bits (qubits) and harnesses the unique properties exhibited by subatomic particles, such as superposition, entanglement, and interference. These quantum phenomena enable quantum computers to operate on an entirely different level, exponentially surpassing the computational capabilities of classical computers. By manipulating qubits and capitalising on their quantum states, QC holds the promise of solving complex problems that are currently intractable in the case of traditional computers. The potential impact of QC extends beyond its computational power and reaches into various critical sectors, including healthcare. Scientists and engineers are working diligently to overcome various challenges and limitations associated with QC technology. These include issues related to qubit stability, error correction, scalability, and noise reduction. In such a scenario, our proposed work provides a concise summary of the most recent state of the art based on articles published between 2018 and 2023 in the healthcare domain. Additionally, the approach follows the necessary guidelines for conducting a systematic literature review. This includes utilising research questions and evaluating the quality of the articles using specific metrics. Initially, a total of 2,038 records were acquired from multiple databases, with…
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a systematic review, done in computer models (in silico), not in people. Its evidence level is 5 of 5 (Very low · case / narrative / animal / in vitro / in silico). Case reports, narrative reviews, and animal, cell or computer-model studies give the weakest evidence for human health.
