Quantum Machine Learning Algorithms for Genome Disease Diagnosis
Al KhaN, Elnura Usupova
The rapid advancements in genomics and the availability of large-scale genetic datasets have revolutionized our understanding of genetic diseases. However, the complexity and high dimensionality of genomic data pose significant computational challenges for classical machine learning (ML) algorithms. Quantum machine learning (QML), an emerging interdisciplinary field that combines quantum computing with ML techniques, offers a promising solution to address these challenges. This paper explores the application of QML algorithms for diagnosing genetic diseases by leveraging the unique properties of quantum computing, such as superposition, entanglement, and quantum parallelism. A novel hybrid quantum-classical approach is proposed to enhance the accuracy and efficiency of disease diagnosis using genomic datasets. The methodology involves encoding genetic data into quantum states, applying quantum-enhanced feature selection and classification algorithms, and validating the results on publicly available datasets, such as the UK Biobank and the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed QML framework achieves higher classification accuracy and faster computation times compared to classical counterparts. Equations, tables, and charts are used to illustrate the effectiveness of the approach. This research highlights the transformative potential of QML in precision medicine and lays the groundwork for future investigations into quantum-enabled healthcare solutions.
