Abstract
Open quantum walks (OQWs) constitute a class of quantum walks whose dynamics are entirely driven by interactions with the environment. It is well known that OQWs provide a general framework for implementing dissipative quantum computation. In this work, we demonstrate the feasibility of running the previously proposed quantum distance-based classifier within the open quantum walk computation model, and we show that its expected runtime remains finite even in the slower regime.
