A quantum learning approach based on Hidden Markov Models for failure scenarios generation

Finding the failure scenarios of a system is a very complex problem in the field of Probabilistic Safety Assessment (PSA). In order to solve this problem we will use the Hidden Quantum Markov Models (HQMMs) to create a generative model. Therefore, in this paper, we will study and compare the results of HQMMs and classical Hidden Markov Models HMM on a real datasets generated from real small systems in the field of PSA. As a quality metric we will use Description accuracy DA and we will show that the quantum approach gives better results compared with the classical approach, and we will give a strategy to identify the probable and no-probable failure scenarios of a system.
