Quantum machine learning (QML) is an emerging research field, which is devoted to devising and implementing quantum algorithms that could enable machine learning faster than that of classical computers. In this article, a hierarchic quantum mechanics-based framework is investigated to implement both the feature extraction and classification in the electroencephalogram (EEG) signal. First, the classical EEG signal dataset is prepared as a quantum state while the sign of the data point is preserved. The prepared quantum state is then evolved with the quantum wavelet packet transformation (QWPT) and the wavelet packet energy entropy (WPEE) feature is extracted as the input of the subsequent quantum classifier. We finally propose the improved quantum support vector machine with the arbitrary nonlinear kernel, which is employed to predict the label of the EEG signal. The complexity analysis indicates that the proposed framework provides exponential speedup over the same structured classical counterpart. Besides, the quantitative experimental results verify the feasibility and validity.

Quantum machine learning (QML) is a relatively new discipline emerging from the concepts of machine learning and quantum computing, whereby quantum algorithms are used to solve machine learning tasks. This paper explores the use of quantum machine learning for electroencephalogram (EEG) classification. In particular, a previously proposed EEG feature extraction method and classification framework for classifying dementia subjects were followed in this study. A quantum classifier replaced the classical classifier component of the framework, and the classification accuracies between the quantum and classical classifiers were compared. This study has demonstrated that applying QML in healthy-dementia classification can be implemented using near-term quantum devices or quantum simulators with moderate performance. The quantum classifier achieved an overall classification accuracy of 81.67% and 79.17% in a train-test split performance test and an n × k-fold cross-validation test, respectively. However, the quantum approach did not produce higher classification accuracies than the classical classifier. Despite the promise of quantum advantages, further investigation and optimization are required to improve its effectiveness.
In the Brain-Computer Interfaces where Electroencephalogram (EEG) signals are used, fast and accurate analysis of data is one of the important steps. For this aim, various machine learning methods are being developed. In this study, we compared the performance of the Quantum Powered Support Vector Machine (QSVM) with classical machine learning algorithms for classifying EEG data. Analyzes were performed in the quantum simulation environment and due to the inadequacies in the quantum environment, the number of samples in the data set was reduced by using Principal Component Analysis. The maximum performance of QSVM was found to be 99.47% in the experiments. When all the results in the analyzes are examined, it is seen that the QSVM has achieved good performance. By removing the limitations of quantum computers and making changes in the hyperparameters of quantum-based algorithms, the use of quantum-based machine learning methods in the classification of EEG data can provide better results in terms of accuracy and runtime.
Automated epileptic seizure detection from electroencephalogram (EEG) recordings remains a challenging biomedical signal analysis task because of the nonlinear, non-stationary, and high-dimensional characteristics of neural activity. Although deep learning has substantially improved automated seizure classification, conventional architectures may exhibit limited capability in modeling complex latent feature interactions while maintaining computational efficiency in biomedical applications. This study presents an entanglement-driven hybrid quantum–classical representation learning framework that integrates Continuous Wavelet Transform (CWT)-based time–frequency analysis, EfficientNet-B0 feature extraction, quantum-compatible latent feature compression, angle-based quantum state encoding, and a customized four-qubit Variational Quantum Convolutional Neural Network (QCNN) for EEG seizure classification. The proposed shallow variational quantum architecture is designed to facilitate expressive quantum feature learning while remaining compatible with the computational constraints of near-term noisy intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) systems. An experimental evaluation was conducted on a balanced subset of 4,000 EEG segments from the UCI Epileptic Seizure Recognition Dataset. Stratified five-fold cross-validation achieved a mean classification accuracy of 97.80% ± 1.50%, demonstrating consistent predictive performance and generalization across several data partitions. Furthermore, evaluation on an independent held-out test set yielded 99.50% accuracy, 99.03% precision, 100.00% recall, 99.51% F1-score, and an area under the ROC curve (AUC) of 1.000. To comprehensively assess the proposed framework, additional investigations, including quantum circuit expressibility, barren plateau analysis, optimization trainability, latent feature-space separability, robustness evaluation, computational scalability, and patch-level quantum attention visualization, were performed, offering complementary evidence regarding representation quality, optimization stability, and model interpretability. Although the proposed framework is currently validated using classical quantum simulation, the results demonstrate the feasibility of hybrid quantum–classical representation learning for intelligent EEG seizure analysis and establish a foundation for future deployment on emerging quantum-computing platforms.

Epileptic seizures are significant challenges in a neurological environment primarily due to the non-stationary and complex nature of the electroencephalogram (EEG) signals. In this paper, we present a Hybrid Quantum-Classical Neural Framework (HQCNF) that leverages quantum computing to support taxonomy of epilepsy seizures with deep neural learning. The framework applies a Continuous Wavelet Transform (CWT) to convert EEG recordings into a time-frequency representation deploying scalograms intended to rigorously scrutinize the features describing oscillations and other elements noted when seizures occur. The model presented in this paper is built from classical architecture and uses quantum-inspired neural layers to support providing the atomic feature representations in order to make sense of discriminability behavior and other elements of interpretable behavior in epistemology and learning. The HQCNF model achieves 99% classification accuracy and provides evidence of enhanced generalization, and outperforms typical deep learning models. The research supports the methodology of hybrid quantum-classical paradigms to move beyond a conventional computing biomedical signal analysis restriction, and the ability to examine infrastructure presented by HQCNF moves us toward real-time assessments and promotes further examination of efforts towards intelligent diagnostic methodologies utilized in neurological disorder management frameworks. The work focuses on the value of quantum-enhanced learning as it relates to EEG-based examination in epilepsy management, and makes advanced hybrid-learning implementations of quantum-enhanced learning that provides for more efficient and reliable accuracy in EEG-based examination of epilepsy signal processing.
Sleep staging is an important task in the field of medicine and is significant for diagnosing sleep disorders and assessing overall health. Classical machine learning has made significant progress in this field, and with the development of quantum computing, quantum machine learning (QML) provides a new model for solving complex data classification tasks. In this paper, we propose a hybrid quantum-classical neural network (HQCNN) architecture based on electroencephalogram (EEG) single-channel signals for automating the sleep staging task. The classical part uses a convolutional neural network (CNN) and a long short-term memory network (LSTM) to extract features of the EEG signal, while the quantum part utilizes variational quantum circuit (VQC) for feature mapping and classification. We evaluated the model on different datasets. The results show that the model is satisfactory for classification. This indicates that the combination of quantum computing and machine learning has great potential and provides new research directions and technical approaches for developing more efficient computational models and dealing with complex data problems.
