Abstract:
Quantum computing uses the concept of quantum mechanics to offer a massive leap forward in relations to solving complex computation problems. Hybrid quantum-classical machine learning algorithms can significantly enhance the processing efficiency and exponentially computational speed-up, highly capable of guaranteeing high QoS requirements of 6G networks. This talk presents the state-of-the-art in quantum machine learning and optimization and provide a comprehensive overview of its potential, via machine learning approaches. Furthermore, this talk introduces quantum-inspired machine learning/optimization applications for 6G networks considering their enabling technologies and potential challenges. Finally, some dominating research issues and future research directions for the quantum-inspired machine learning/optimization in 6G networks are elaborated.
