Abstract

Quantum-inspired algorithms help handle complex optimization and inference challenges in AI and ML. Quantum-like algorithms based on quantum mechanics address challenges classical computer paradigms can't. These algorithms innovate data handling, solution finding, and pattern recognition. Quantum effects like superposition, entanglement, and tunneling influenced them. In particular, they work in parallel to explore large solution spaces and speed up processing for large datasets. Next, quantum-inspired algorithms including quantum annealing, optimization, and neural networks are discussed. Simulated annealing and the quantum approximate optimization algorithm (QAOA) make combinatorial optimization tasks in AI and ML easier. Quantum-inspired evolutionary and swarm intelligence algorithms tackle multi-modal optimization issues quickly. Furthermore, quantum-inspired neural networks (QNNs) have revolutionized deep learning. QNNs use quantum gates and quantum circuits to improve classification, regression, and generative modeling.
