This tutorial provides an overview of Quantum Machine Learning (QML), a relatively novel discipline that brings together concepts from Machine Learning (ML), Quantum Computing (QC) and Quantum Information (QI). The great development experienced by QC, partly due to the involvement of giant technological companies as well as the popularity and success of ML have been responsible of making QML one of the main streams for researchers working on fuzzy borders between Physics, Mathematics and Computer Science. A possible, although arguably coarse, classification of QML methods may be based on those approaches that make use of ML in a quantum experimentation environment and those others that take advantage of QC and QI to find out alternative and enhanced solutions to problems driven by data, oftentimes offering a considerable speedup and improved performances as a result of tackling problems from a complete different standpoint. Several examples will be provided to illustrate both classes of methods.

Quantum computing and quantum machines continue to raise awareness once people realized that “Nature isn’t classical. If you want to make a simulation of nature, you’d better make it quantum mechanical.” ( Feynman, 1982 ). On the other hand, as the Internet brings big data, machine learning has become a logical step for researchers looking for tasks such as the patterns behind the data, or for companies seeking to maximize their data’s potential value. The combination of the quantum computing and machine learning (ML) fields has resulted in quantum machine learning (QML), one of today’s most active fields. This preview provides essential concepts in quantum computation, including the basic quantum physics and fundamentals of quantum computing. The next section examines quantum-enhanced ML models and algorithms. The current state of knowledge of applications is discussed in the following section and the preview concludes with open questions for future research on QML.
Quantum Computing can be defined as an intersection among Quantum Physics, Computer Science and Mathematics. Though the behavior of quantum mechanics is spooky, the mathematics behind it is simpler and easier than classical one. Using superposition and entanglement, quantum computing can solve complex problems efficiently and it would take less amount of time than its classical counterpart to do so. Machine Learning (ML) is a subset of Artificial Intelligence (AI) which helps to learn from data, analyze patterns and make itself improved. When quantum computing is blended with Machine Learning, Quantum Machine Learning pops up. In this survey, we explore what Quantum Machine Learning (QML) is and how it actually works. We try to demonstrate the very quantum touch on our known machine learning algorithms. We also delve into the various application areas of QML. This paper helps to understand QML from basics to advanced levels.
Recent advancements in quantum computing (QC) and machine learning (ML) have fueled significant research efforts aimed at integrating these two transformative technologies. Quantum machine learning (QML), an emerging interdisciplinary field, leverages quantum principles to enhance the performance of ML algorithms. Concurrently, the exploration of systematic and automated approaches for designing high-performance quantum circuit architectures for QML tasks has gained prominence, as these methods empower researchers outside the quantum computing domain to effectively utilize quantum-enhanced tools. This tutorial will provide an in-depth overview of recent breakthroughs in both areas, highlighting their potential to expand the application landscape of QML across diverse fields.
Abstract The rapid advancement of artificial intelligence has made machine learning (ML) methods central to modern science, technology, and industry.

While QML is often considered a promising application for quantum computing, its practical advantages over classical methods remain an area of active research and exploration. In recent years, QML has garnered significant global attention, with researchers investigating its potential and limitations. In this chapter, we introduce the fundamentals of QML and provide an overview of recent developments and future trends in the field. We outline potential opportunities where quantum properties might offer advantages in ML tasks while also addressing the open challenges that QML faces in terms of scalability, implementation, and practical utility. We also explore the potential applications of QML in defense and security-sensitive domains. Here, researchers speculate that integrating quantum computing into ML could lead to the development of systems capable of resisting sophisticated threats, such as data manipulation and poisoning. However, realizing these possibilities requires further advancements in both quantum hardware and algorithmic design, making QML a promising yet still evolving field.
