Predicting Risk of Disease Development

Problem

Predicting the risk of developing diseases like heart failure, diabetes, or cancer involves analyzing complex, high-dimensional datasets, which classical methods may struggle to handle effectively.

Solution

Quantum algorithms like quantum variational classifiers (VQCs) and quantum random forests can efficiently process large datasets and predict disease risk factors based on a variety of inputs (e.g., genetic data, clinical history, lifestyle factors).

Impact

Faster and more accurate disease risk prediction allows for earlier intervention, prevention, and personalised treatment, potentially reducing healthcare costs and improving long-term health outcomes.
