A quantum algorithm is an algorithm that runs on real quantum computers

Quantum Algorithms

Classical quantum-inspired algorithms borrow mathematical frameworks from quantum mechanics but are not constrained by the quantum computing operations when processing the data

Quantum-inspired algorithms

Quantum NLP algorithms can be implemented either on quantum computers (quantum algorithms) or classical computers (quantum-inspired or quantum-like models)

Quantum NLP algorithms

Both quantum-inspired algorithms and quantum algorithms can model different features in the language; these are broken down into word representation and composition

Modeling Targets of Quantum NLP

Quantum NLP shows comparable or better performance compared with strong baselines for various tasks. These include:
- information retrieval
- question answering
- text classification
- speech recognition
