A Review of quantum algorithms for prediction of hazardous asteroids

Abstract

Quantum computing (QC) and quantum machine learning (QML), two emerging technologies, have the potential to completely change how we approach solving difficult problems in physics and astronomy, among other fields. Potentially Hazardous Asteroids (PHAs) can produce a variety of damaging phenomena that put biodiversity and human life at serious risk. Although PHAs have been identified through the use of machine learning (ML) techniques, the current approaches have reached a point of saturation, signaling the need for additional innovation. This paper provides an in-depth examination of various machine learning (ML) and QML techniques for precisely identifying potentially hazardous asteroids. The study attempts to provide information to improve the efficiency and accuracy of asteroid categorization by combining QML techniques like deep learning with a variety of machine learning (ML) algorithms, such as Random Forest and support vector machines. The study highlights weaknesses in existing approaches, including feature selection and model assessment, and suggests directions for further investigation. The results highlight the significance of developing QML techniques to increase the prediction of asteroid hazards, consequently supporting enhanced risk assessment and space exploration efforts.
