A quantum edge detection algorithm for quantum multi-wavelength images

Engin Şahin, İhsan Yılmaz

Quantum edge detection is one of the important part of quantum image processing. In this paper, a quantum edge detection algorithm is designed for the quantum representation of multi-wavelength image (QRMW) model. The algorithm includes all stages of filtering, enhancement and detection. The proposed algorithm is also designed to apply any filtering operation to QRMW images, not only for a particular filtering operation. The proposed algorithm aims to solve the problems that quantum edge detection algorithms in the literature have processing only for a particular operator and noise reduction. Moreover, the algorithm aims to perform operations more efficiently by using less resources. Low-pass filter (LPF) smoothing operators are applied in the filtering stage for the noise reduction problem. In order to apply all filtering operations to the image, arithmetic operators that can operate with all signed integers are used in the algorithm. The operators Sobel, Prewitt and Scharr in the enhancement stage and the gradient method in the detection stage are used for both verification of the proposed algorithm and comparisons with the existing algorithms. A method with quantitative outcomes is shown to evaluate the performance of the edge detection algorithms. Analysis of the simulations performed on sample images with different operators. The circuit complexity of the algorithm is presented and the comparisons are made with the existing studies. The superiority of the proposed algorithm and its flexibility to be used in other studies are clearly demonstrated by analysis.

Quantum-Enhanced Edge Computing for Robust Cyber Threat Detection

S. Anand

The growing complexity of cyber threats has surpassed traditional detection systems, especially where real-time response and distributed protection are vital. This chapter explores a hybrid Quantum-Edge framework for cyber threat detection. Quantum Computing's parallelism and advanced data processing capabilities complement Edge Computing's low-latency, decentralized analysis. Our framework integrates quantum feature transformation, quantum-enhanced anomaly detection, and federated learning on edge nodes. Using Qiskit, simulated attacks, and real-time edge processing, we demonstrate improved detection accuracy, lower false positives, and faster responses. We also propose future directions in quantum-resilient, privacy-preserving, and scalable cybersecurity solutions.

In-depth Study of Quantum Hadamard Gate EdgeDetection: Complexity Analysis, Experiments,and Future Directions

Ridho Nur Rohman Wijaya, Budi Setiyono, Dwi Ratna Sulistyaningrum

Quantum computing is a rapidly developing field with faster computational capabilities than classical computing.The popularity of quantum computing has reached the field of image processing, particularly with a breakthrough method known as Quantum Hadamard Edge Detection.This approach represents a significant advancement in edge detection techniques using quantum computing.Quantum Hadamard Edge Detection is a method that can detect image edges more quickly than classical methods with exponential acceleration.This paper explains the Quantum Hadamard Edge Detection method in detail, including how it is implemented, a time complexity explanation, some experiments, and future research directions.Our experiments utilize a quantum computer simulator and employ four measurement metrics: Structural Similarity Index, Figure of Merit, Entropy, and a Proposed Metric with radius-based features, to detect simple binary images, MNIST images, and the Berkeley Segmentation datasets.We recognize the potential of quantum computing and believe that image processing with quantum representation will make processing more efficient and significantly valuable in the future.
