Quantum ComputingDriven Social Data Processing Methods

Aiqing WANG

Quantum computing introduces a revolutionary computational paradigm for social data analysis. Traditional social data processing methods face significant challenges in handling high-dimensional, heterogeneous, and dynamic datasets. Quantum computing, leveraging quantum superposition, entanglement, and parallel computation, provides efficient solutions for large-scale optimization, pattern recognition, and decision analysis. This paper systematically explores the applications of quantum computing in social sciences, covering theoretical foundations, methodological frameworks, experimental validations, and case studies to highlight the advantages of quantum algorithms in social network analysis, sentiment classification, and economic forecasting. Additionally, we discuss the broader implications of quantum computing for social science research paradigms, ethical and governance concerns, and future development directions, emphasizing the integration of quantum computing with artificial intelligence. This paper aims to provide new insights into computational social science and advance the practical adoption of quantum computing in social data processing.

Quantum-Social Network Analysis for Community Detection: A Comprehensive Review

Samya Muhuri, Shashank Sheshar Singh

The dynamics and underlying structure of complex social networks (SNs) can be discovered using community detection. Considering how quantum computing might improve community detection techniques is becoming more and more popular in light of recent developments in computing technology. In this article, the rapidly developing topic of quantum-SN analysis for community discovery is thoroughly reviewed. Community detection is studied in the context of several quantum-inspired techniques, including quantum annealing and quantum-inspired optimization. To make use of the strengths of both conventional SN research methods and quantum computing techniques, hybrid quantum-classical approaches are being investigated. Case studies and applications that have made use of quantum-SN analysis methodologies are reviewed to highlight the practical consequences and potential advantages over conventional methods. The article also highlights the challenges and limitations of using quantum computing for SN analysis, including technical constraints and ethical issues. Finally, prospects and future research objectives in the area of quantum-SN analysis are highlighted. This covers possible developments in quantum algorithms for community detection, the incorporation of quantum computing with other SN research tasks, and the significance of multidisciplinary collaborations.

Quantum Computing in Secure Communication: Challenges, Techniques, and Future Directions

A.V Krishna, V. Kumar, H. S. Sathish +1 more

The emergence of quantum computing has introduced both opportunities and threats to modern secure communication systems. Classical cryptographic algorithms, which rely on computational complexity, are vulnerable to quantum algorithms capable of solving problems such as integer factorization and discrete logarithms efficiently. This paper explores the role of quantum computing in secure communication, focusing on quantum cryptographic techniques such as Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) and Quantum Secure Direct Communication (QSDC). A comprehensive review of existing literature is presented, followed by an analysis of methodologies used in quantum-secure communication systems. The study evaluates the advantages, limitations, and practical challenges of implementing quantum communication technologies. Finally, future research directions and the integration of quantum technologies into next-generation communication networks are discussed.
