Quantum Machine Learning (QML) has not yet demonstrated extensively and clearly its advantages compared to the classical machine learning approach. So far, there are only specific cases where some quantum-inspired techniques have achieved small incremental advantages, and a few experimental cases in hybrid quantum computing are promising, considering a mid-term future (not taking into account the achievements purely associated with optimization using quantum-classical algorithms). The current quantum computers are noisy and have few qubits to test, making it difficult to demonstrate the current and potential quantum advantage of QML methods. This study shows that we can achieve better classical encoding and performance of quantum classifiers by using Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) during the data preprocessing step. As a result, the Variational Quantum Algorithm (VQA) shows a gain of performance in balanced accuracy with the LDA technique and outperforms baseline classical classifiers.

Quantum Machine Learning (QML) shows how it maintains certain significant advantages over machine learning methods. It now shows that hybrid quantum methods have great scope for deployment and optimisation, and hold promise for future industries. As a weakness, quantum computing does not have enough qubits to justify its potential. This topic of study gives us encouraging results in the improvement of quantum coding, being the data preprocessing an important point in this research we employ two dimensionality reduction techniques LDA and PCA applying them in a hybrid way Quantum Support Vector Classifier (QSVC) and Variational Quantum Classifier (VQC) in the classification of Diabetes.
Quantum Machine Learning (QML) is a newly emerging research area at the intersection of classical machine learning (CML) and quantum computing (QC). Data is becoming voluminous rapidly, so it is challenging for classical computers to train Machine Learning (ML) models over massive datasets. The hope is that quantum physics' intrinsic features, such as entanglement, superposition, and interference, could be exploited as resources for training ML models on big datasets that would otherwise be relatively impossible for classical computers. It is theoretically proven that quantum computers have an exponential-time advantage over their classical counterparts in solving several problems, e.g., complex large dimensional matrix multiplication, factorization problem, unstructured database search, etc. QML models attempt to find a quantum advantage over their classical counterparts. Variational Quantum Classifiers (VQC) are hybrid quantum neural networks to perform the task of classification using QML models. VQC models in the present NISQ (Noisy Intermediate Scale Quantum — 50 to 100 qubits) era can produce comparable and even better results than Classical models. In this article, we examined the performance of a VQC while performing a simple binary classification task. In this article, we use a VQC to evaluate this method's performance empirically. We constructed a VQC to predict the label of fresh input for the typical Iris dataset comprising pairings of target outputs and training inputs. Our quantum classifier can reasonably predict species labels using only four qubits. These levels are fairly good compared to the accuracy levels attained by classical classifiers.
At the intersection of two promising technologies, Machine Learning (ML) and Quantum Computing (QC), Quantum Machine Learning (QML) emerges. However, while QC is still in an early stage of development, QML is even more so. In this study, the Auto-MPG dataset was selected for its dimension, making it suitable for QML tasks within the current limitations of quantum hardware, especially regarding qubit requirements. Unlike classification problems that dominate the literature, regression problems have only been explored theoretically. This study aims to bridge that gap by applying QML techniques to a practical regression task. To this end, a preliminary analysis was conducted using a classical model as a reference point for subsequent evaluation. The quantum experimentation was performed in two phases: first, the model was trained in an ideal simulator to determine the model's best hyperparameters. Then, these best models were run in a noisy simulator using quantum error mitigation techniques. The results show how the Variational Quantum Algorithms (VQA) outperforms classical Extreme Gradient Boosting and the methods used to mitigate errors in quantum hardware are effective, as they achieve comparable results between the noisy simulator and the perfect simulator. This brings closer the possible applications in NISQ current devices.
In this work, we studied the use of Quantum Machine Learning (QML) algorithms for binary classification and compared their performance with classical Machine Learning (ML) methods. QML merges principles of Quantum Computing (QC) and ML, offering improved efficiency and potential quantum advantage in data-driven tasks and when solving complex problems. In binary classification, where the goal is to assign data to one of two categories, QML uses quantum algorithms to process large datasets efficiently. Quantum algorithms like Quantum Support Vector Machines (QSVM) and Quantum Neural Networks (QNN) exploit quantum parallelism and entanglement to enhance performance over classical methods. This study focuses on two common QML algorithms, Quantum Support Vector Classifier (QSVC) and QNN. We used the Qiskit software and conducted the experiments with three different datasets. Data preprocessing included dimensionality reduction using Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and standardization using scalers. The results showed that quantum algorithms demonstrated competitive performance against their classical counterparts in terms of accuracy, while QSVC performed better than QNN. These findings suggest that QML holds potential for improving computational efficiency in binary classification tasks. This opens the way for more efficient and scalable solutions in complex classification challenges and shows the complementary role of quantum computing.
Quantum machine learning (QML) provides a transformative approach to data analysis by integrating the principles of quantum computing with classical machine learning methods. With the exponential growth of data and the increasing complexity of computational tasks, quantum algorithms offer tremendous advantages in terms of processing speed, memory efficiency, and the ability to resolve issues intractable for classical systems. In this work, the use of QML techniques for both supervised and unsupervised learning problems is explored. Quantum-enhanced models such Quantum Support Vector Machines (QSVMs) and Quantum Neural Networks (QNNs) show outstanding performance in classification and regression tasks by using quantum kernels and entanglement in supervised learning. Moreover, hybrid quantum-classical solutions offer useful implementations on noisy intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) devices, hence bridging the gap between present quantum technology and practical uses. By means of comparative analysis, this paper emphasizes the possible benefits and drawbacks of QML, thereby providing understanding of its future importance in sectors including material science, finance, and healthcare. In the end, QML opens the path for a new era of intelligent data processing and solves until unthinkable difficult challenges.
