Hello @Scinawa ,
I suggest considering Quantum NLP for quantumalgorithms.org .
Here are two papers I recommend:

• https://arxiv.org/abs/2012.03755
• https://arxiv.org/abs/2102.12846

Massimiliano,
Thanks so much for pointing out those papers.

We know very well the work of these reserchers, and we think it's great work. However, these work are not yet algorithms, i.e. in the sense that they don't work in our fault-tolerant model of quantum computers, and there are no algorithms (i.e. theorems) with proofs showing runtimes/failure probability, so we decided to not include those results here (along with other papers of this kind, like QAOA/VQE/QNN circuits.)

But thanks anyway! :)
