Heretofore, the sampling of Bayesian networks has been done on a conventional "classical computer". In this paper, we propose methods for doing importance sampling and Metropolis-Hastings sampling of a classical Bayesian network on a quantum computer.41 pages (files: 1.tex, 3.sty, 8.eps)Quantum PhysicsUse of a Quantum Computer to do Importance and Metropolis-Hastings Sampling of a Classical Bayesian Networktext
