Quantum Computing, Enterprise Optimization, Quantum Machine Learning, Financial Risk Management, Healthcare SimulationAbstract
Quantum computing serves as a revolutionary paradigm in computing, harnessing quantum mechanics principles such as quantum entanglement and superposition for optimization simulation, machine learning, and other problems that are a challenge to classical computer systems. The article will examine different usage opportunities in retail and supply chain operations, healthcare and life sciences domains, insurance operations, and financial service industries. Better computation can be achieved with quantum algorithms in discrete and continuous optimization, logistics network optimization, warehouse management, and product delivery optimized by quantum algorithms. Application domains in healthcare include simulation of molecules for medical breakthroughs, genomic analysis, and medical studies optimized by quantum eigenvalue algorithms and quantum eigensolver algorithms. The insurance industry portfolio targets catastrophic modeling, identification, and risk assessment optimized by quantum amplitude estimation algorithms and quantum machine learning algorithms. Financial service industries include derivative pricing, portfolio optimization, credit risk evaluation, and real-time risk calculation optimized in quantum algorithms. The path towards achieving quantum benefit in quantum technology involves using noisy intermediate quantum technology with hybrid quantum and classical designs and error management schemes, where integration opportunities for different industries arise from their common computation problem schemas in need of further scaling in hardware technology.
