US Patent 11537928 Quantum-classical system and method for matrix computations

A hybrid quantum-classical computer solves systems of equations and eigenvalue problems utilizing non-unitary transformations on the quantum computer. The method may be applied, for example, to principal component analysis, least squares fitting, regression, spectral embedding and clustering, vibrations in mechanics, fluids and quantum chemistry, material sciences, electromagnetism, signal processing, image segmentation and data mining.
