The rapid growth of Internet of Things (IoT) devices necessitates efficient data compression techniques to manage the vast amounts of data they generate. Chemiresistive sensor arrays (CSAs), a simple yet essential component in IoT systems, produce large datasets due to their simultaneous multi-sensor operations. Classical principal component analysis (cPCA), a widely used solution for dimensionality reduction, often struggles to preserve critical information in complex datasets. In this study, the self-adaptive quantum kernel (SAQK) PCA is introduced as a complementary approach to enhance information retention. The results show that SAQK PCA outperforms cPCA in various back end machine-learning tasks, particularly in low-dimensional scenarios where quantum bit resources are constrained. Although the overall improvement is modest in some cases, SAQK PCA proves especially effective in preserving group structures within low-dimensional data. These findings underscore the potential of noisy intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) computers to transform data processing in real-world IoT applications by improving the efficiency and reliability of CSA data compression and readout, despite current qubit limitations.

Abstract Kernel principal component analysis (kernel PCA) is a nonlinear dimensionality reduction technique that employs kernel functions to map data into a high-dimensional feature space, thereby extending the applicability of linear PCA to nonlinear data and facilitating the extraction of informative principal components. However, kernel PCA necessitates the manipulation of large-scale matrices, leading to high computational complexity and posing challenges for efficient implementation in big data environments. Quantum computing has recently been integrated with kernel methods in machine learning, enabling effective analysis of input data within intractable feature spaces. Although existing quantum kernel PCA proposals promise exponential speedups, they impose stringent requirements on quantum hardware that are challenging to fulfill. In this work, we propose a quantum algorithm for kernel PCA by establishing a connection between quantum kernel methods and block encoding, thereby diagonalizing the centralized kernel matrix on a quantum computer. The query complexity is logarithmic with respect to the size of the data vector, D , and linear with respect to the size of the dataset. An exponential speedup could be achieved when the dataset consists of a few high-dimensional vectors, wherein the dataset size is polynomial in log ( D ) , with D being significantly large. In contrast to existing work, our algorithm enhances the efficiency of quantum kernel PCA and reduces the requirements for quantum hardware. Furthermore, we have also demonstrated that the algorithm based on block encoding matches the lower bound of query complexity, indicating that our algorithm is nearly optimal. Our research has laid down new pathways for developing quantum machine learning algorithms aimed at addressing tangible real-world problems and demonstrating quantum advantages within machine learning.

This paper introduces adaptive quantum kernels (AQKs) for kernel principal component analysis (Kernel PCA), addressing the limitations of traditional quantum kernels that necessitate predefined data structures and assumptions. The core concept involves employing a quantum neural network to learn the structure of the kernel function directly from the data. This dynamic approach allows the AQK to adapt to the specific characteristics of a dataset, leading to enhanced classification or dimensionality reduction performance. The key innovation lies in the learned, data-dependent kernel structure, representing a significant departure from static quantum kernels. This paper details the theoretical framework, the proposed AQK architecture, and discusses its potential impact on various applications. The algorithm aims to overcome the rigidity of fixed-structure kernels by introducing a method of self-adaptation. The theoretical foundation is built upon quantum feature maps and kernel methods, exploring the optimization of kernel parameters within a quantum computing environment. This research provides a novel approach to kernel methods, leveraging the power of quantum computation for adaptive dimensionality reduction and classification tasks. The core of the system is the adaptive learning of the kernel parameters via a quantum neural network.
This paper evaluates the performance of two quantum machine learning algorithms: Quantum Support Vector Machine (QSVM) and Quantum Principal Component Analysis (Q-PCA). The scalability of QSVM is analyzed across increasing dataset sizes and feature dimensions, revealing faster-than-linear growth in kernel evaluation and SVM training times. However, this computational overhead is accompanied by a notable decline in classification accuracy, highlighting challenges in applying QSVM to larger or more complex datasets. In contrast, Q-PCA demonstrates near-linear scalability with dataset size and qubit count, leveraging the independence of quantum circuit execution and structured operations to maintain efficiency. A QNN-based implementation of Q-PCA further validates its ability to align data with principal components, maximize variance, and enable effective dimensionality reduction. These findings emphasize the potential of Q-PCA for efficient quantum-enhanced data analysis while underscoring the need for optimization in QSVM and further exploration of Q-PCA’s capabilities for real-world quantum computing applications.
