This is because the use of quantum algorithms since the advent of quantum computers has allowed an exponential increase in the speed of solving NP-complete problems. Paper decide the some problems of finding and creation of approaches for the functioning of quantum calculation processes and prototypes of quantum devices in the framework of quantum image processing. A method for storing and processing image components in quantum systems is proposed, which potentially will give a significant step toward in efficiency in comparison with existing classical ones and provide a solution to a number of complex problems.

A quantum Hopfield neural network model and image recognition

Ge Liu, Wenping Ma, Hao Cao +1 more

Abstract Quantum computing is a new mode that follows the laws of quantum mechanics. It performs computational tasks based on the control of quantum units. From the view of computable problems, quantum computers can only solve the problems that traditional computers can solve, but considering the efficiency of computation, due to the existence of quantum superposition, some known quantum algorithms are exponentially faster than traditional general-purpose computers. In this article, we combine quantum computing with a classical neural network to design a quantum Hopfield network. Each neuron is initialized to a specified state and evolved into a steady state. The output result is one of patterns in a training set. We also present an application of this protocol in image recognition. The simulation results show that this network works in the quantum environment and the output images are correct, therefore the feasibility of this protocol is verified.

Quantum face recognition protocol with ghost imaging

Vahid Salari, Dilip Paneru, Erhan Sağlamyürek +6 more

Face recognition is one of the most ubiquitous examples of pattern recognition in machine learning, with numerous applications in security, access control, and law enforcement, among many others. Pattern recognition with classical algorithms requires significant computational resources, especially when dealing with high-resolution images in an extensive database. Quantum algorithms have been shown to improve the efficiency and speed of many computational tasks, and as such, they could also potentially improve the complexity of the face recognition process. Here, we propose a quantum machine learning algorithm for pattern recognition based on quantum principal component analysis, and quantum independent component analysis. A novel quantum algorithm for finding dissimilarity in the faces based on the computation of trace and determinant of a matrix (image) is also proposed. The overall complexity of our pattern recognition algorithm is [Formula: see text]-N is the image dimension. As an input to these pattern recognition algorithms, we consider experimental images obtained from quantum imaging techniques with correlated photons, e.g. "interaction-free" imaging or "ghost" imaging. Interfacing these imaging techniques with our quantum pattern recognition processor provides input images that possess a better signal-to-noise ratio, lower exposures, and higher resolution, thus speeding up the machine learning process further. Our fully quantum pattern recognition system with quantum algorithm and quantum inputs promises a much-improved image acquisition and identification system with potential applications extending beyond face recognition, e.g., in medical imaging for diagnosing sensitive tissues or biology for protein identification.

This paper investigates the application of quantum neural networks (QNNs) for pattern recognition. Traditional neural networks face limitations in processing complex data due to their reliance on classical computing principles. QNNs leverage quantum mechanics phenomena, specifically superposition and entanglement, to potentially overcome these limitations. This research proposes a framework for constructing a QNN-based pattern recognition system. The core claim is to enhance pattern recognition accuracy and efficiency by utilizing these quantum properties. We detail the conversion process from classical neural networks to QNNs, highlighting the computational advantages offered by quantum computing. This work contributes to the nascent field of quantum machine learning, exploring the potential of QNNs to revolutionize pattern recognition tasks. The theoretical foundation presented here forms a basis for future research and development in this area.

Quantum Convolutional Neural Networks (QCNN) Using Deep Learning for Computer Vision Applications

Varadi Rajesh, Umesh Parameshwar Naik, Mohana

Deep learning algorithms and models have made an impact in the area of AI and machine learning, one among them is CNN. CNN is extensively used in the area of image recognition and object detection for classification purposes. CNN is composed of several layers of filters to get feature maps of input data, yet foremost and crucial one is convolutional layer, hence the name Convolutional neural networks. However, the growth of quantum computing and quantum neural network in deep learning is limited. Three main obstacles that limit the growth of these are, first is due to the lack of real-time quantum computers to experiment with. Second is the improper training algorithms and at last, non-linearity nature of the neural networks. This paper introduces a novel approach to begin one's journey in quantum computing, along with solutions and developments. This work provides a detailed description of architectures, frameworks and algorithms used for implementing a QCNN model. The research was made regarding image recognition and object detection using QCNN and found that QCNN can increase the computational speeds with better performance metrics compared to classical computational methods. This paper also debates about applications of QCNN in computer vision, signal and image processing, Pharmaceuticals, Cryptography and various other fields. This study also explains Key players and future work in developing quantum computers, quantum computing algorithms, software and hardware support to implement QCNN in various applications.
