Heart disease morbidity and mortality rates are increasing, which has a negative impact on public health and the global economy. Early detection of heart disease reduces the incidence of heart mortality and morbidity. Recent research has utilized quantum computing methods to predict heart disease with more than 5 qubits and are computationally intensive. Despite the higher number of qubits, earlier work reports a lower accuracy in predicting heart disease, have not considered the outlier effects, and requires more computation time and memory for heart disease prediction. To overcome these limitations, we propose hybrid random forest quantum neural network (HQRF) using a few qubits (two to four) and considered the effects of outlier in the dataset. Two open-source datasets, Cleveland and Statlog, are used in this study to apply quantum networks. The proposed algorithm has been applied on two open-source datasets and utilized two different types of testing strategies such as 10-fold cross validation and 70-30 train/test ratio. We compared the performance of our proposed methodology with our earlier algorithm called hybrid quantum neural network (HQNN) proposed in the literature for heart disease prediction. HQNN and HQRF outperform in 10-fold cross validation and 70/30 train/test split ratio, respectively. The results show that HQNN requires a large training dataset while HQRF is more appropriate for both large and small training dataset. According to the experimental results, the proposed HQRF is not sensitive to the outlier data compared to HQNN. Compared to earlier works, the proposed HQRF achieved a maximum area under the curve (AUC) of 96.43% and 97.78% in predicting heart diseases using Cleveland and Statlog datasets, respectively with HQNN. The proposed HQRF is highly efficient in detecting heart disease at an early stage and will speed up clinical diagnosis.

Coronary heart disease (CHD) is a severe cardiac disease, and hence, its early diagnosis is essential as it improves treatment results and saves money on medical care. The prevailing development of quantum computing and machine learning (ML) technologies may bring practical improvement to the performance of CHD diagnosis. Quantum machine learning (QML) is receiving tremendous interest in various disciplines due to its higher performance and capabilities. A quantum leap in the healthcare industry will increase processing power and optimise multiple models. Techniques for QML have the potential to forecast cardiac disease and help in early detection.

Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) continue to be the leading global cause of death, requiring innovative approaches for early detection and accurate prediction. This study explores the transformative potential of quantum-enhanced machine learning (queml) models in cardiovascular disease prediction, addressing the limitations of conventional diagnostic approaches. Using extensive datasets including the Kaggle Heart Disease Dataset of 1,190 patient records and the Cleveland/State Registry datasets, the quantum-enhanced models show superior performance over traditional machine learning approaches, with QCVNET achieving 91.73% accuracy and queml showing a 0.6% improvement in accuracy, while reducing training time from 862.5 µs to 670 µs per cycle. Key physiological parameters including diabetes indicators, LDL cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, and triglycerides were incorporated as predictive features. The IQCNN framework achieved 91% classification accuracy at a learning rate of 70%, significantly outperforming the Bi-LSTM and CNN approaches. Comparative analysis revealed exceptional AUC scores of 96.43% and 97.78% for the hybrid models, establishing quantum-enhanced machine learning as a highly effective solution for cardiovascular risk assessment and early detection systems.
The earlier prediction of heart diseases and appropriate treatment are important for preventing cardiac failure complications and reducing the mortality rate. The traditional prediction and classification approaches have resulted in a minimum rate of prediction accuracy and hence to overcome the pitfalls in existing systems, the present research is aimed to perform the prediction of heart diseases with quantum learning. When quantum learning is employed in ML (Machine Learning) and DL (Deep Learning) algorithms, complex data can be performed efficiently with less time and a higher accuracy rate. Moreover, the proposed ML and DL algorithms possess the ability to adapt to predictions with alterations in the dataset integrated with quantum computing that provides robustness in the earlier detection of chronic diseases. The Cleveland heart disease dataset is being pre-processed for the checking of missing values to avoid incorrect predictions and also for improvising the rate of accuracy. Further, SVM (Support Vector Machine), DT (Decision Tree) and RF (Random Forest) are used to perform classification. Finally, disease prediction is performed with the proposed instance-based quantum ML and DL method in which the number of qubits is computed with respect to features and optimized with instance-based learning. Additionally, a comparative assessment is provided for quantifying the differences between the standard classification algorithms with quantum-based learning in order to determine the significance of quantum-based detection in heart failure. From the results, the accuracy of the proposed system using instance-based quantum DL and instance-based quantum ML is found to be 98% and 83.6% respectively.

Quantum Machine Learning represents a promising approach to address complex computational challenges beyond classical computing capabilities. In this study, we investigate its application to healthcare, focusing specifically on the classification of cardiovascular diseases. Classical Machine Learning methods often struggle with high-dimensional data, resulting in limited accuracy and reduced generalization, especially in real-world medical scenarios. To overcome these issues, we propose a Hybrid Quantum-Neural Network that combines classical Autoencoders for dimensionality reduction with Quantum Neural Networks, facilitating effective data processing compatible with current NISQ hardware. Evaluated on the Cleveland dataset, our HQNN achieves state-of-the-art classification accuracy up to 90.98%, outperforming purely classical counterparts by capturing complex feature relationships in the quantum domain. We further demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed HQNN model in scenarios characterized by limited training data and realistic noisy quantum environments, performing robustness analyses and simulations using IBM’s quantum hardware framework. These findings highlight the practical advantages of our Hybrid Quantum-Neural Network, underscoring its suitability and immediate applicability for real-world healthcare scenarios. The code is made publicly available.
