Abstract: |
Methods and systems for quantum computing based sample analysis include computing cross-correlations of two images using a quantum processing system, and computing less noisy image based of two or more images using a quantum processing system. Specifically, the disclosure includes methods and systems for utilizing a quantum computing system to compute and store cross correlation values for two sets of data, which was previously believed to be physically impossible. Additionally, the disclosure also includes methods and systems for utilizing a quantum computing system to generate less noisy data sets using a quantum expectation maximization maximum likelihood (EMML). Specifically, the disclosed systems and methods allow for the generation of less noisy data sets by utilizing the special traits of quantum computers, the systems and methods disclosed herein represent a drastic improvement in efficiency over current systems and methods that rely on traditional computing systems. |
