description Quantum computing is envisaged as an evolving paradigm for solving computationally complex optimization problems with a large-number factorization and exhaustive search. Recently, there has been a proliferating growth of the size of multi-dimensional datasets, the input-output space dimensionality, and data structures. Hence, the conventional machine learning approaches in data training and processing have exhibited their limited computing capabilities to support the sixth-generation (6G) networks with highly dynamic applications and services. In this regard, the fast developing quantum computing with machine learning for 6G networks is investigated. Quantum machine learning algorithm can significantly enhance the processing efficiency and exponentially computational speed-up for effective quantum data representation and superposition framework, highly capable of guaranteeing high data storage and secured communications. We present the state-of-the-art in quantum computing and provide a comprehensive overview of its potential, via machine learning approaches. Furthermore, we introduce quantum-inspired machine learning applications for 6G networks in terms of resource allocation and network security, considering their enabling technologies and potential challenges. Finally, some dominating research issues and future research directions for the quantum-inspired machine learning in 6G networks are elaborated.
