Background of the Study
The healthcare sector has seen significant advancements in data analysis, with artificial intelligence (AI) playing a pivotal role in the early detection and prediction of diseases. However, as the volume of healthcare data continues to grow, the need for faster and more accurate prediction models has become evident. Traditional AI models may struggle to process the large and complex datasets required for real-time disease prediction. Quantum computing, with its ability to perform calculations exponentially faster than classical computing, could provide an innovative solution to these challenges by enhancing the capabilities of AI models in predicting diseases in real time.
At the Federal Medical Centre in Makurdi, the application of quantum-based AI models could help predict the onset of diseases based on various factors, including patient demographics, medical history, and environmental conditions. Such a model could enable healthcare providers to deliver timely interventions, potentially saving lives and improving patient outcomes. This study will explore the design and implementation of a quantum-based AI model for real-time disease prediction, focusing on its application at the Federal Medical Centre, Makurdi.
Statement of the Problem
While AI has made significant contributions to disease prediction, the limitations of classical computing systems in processing large healthcare datasets hinder real-time predictions. Traditional models may not have the computational power required to analyze dynamic health data quickly and accurately. Quantum computing, with its potential for parallel processing, can offer faster and more accurate results. However, there is a gap in understanding how to design and implement quantum-based AI models within the healthcare context, specifically at the Federal Medical Centre in Makurdi. This study aims to address this gap by evaluating the feasibility and effectiveness of such a model.
