This paper evaluates the performance of two quantum machine learning algorithms: Quantum Support Vector Machine (QSVM) and Quantum Principal Component Analysis (Q-PCA). The scalability of QSVM is analyzed across increasing dataset sizes and feature dimensions, revealing faster-than-linear growth in kernel evaluation and SVM training times. However, this computational overhead is accompanied by a notable decline in classification accuracy, highlighting challenges in applying QSVM to larger or more complex datasets. In contrast, Q-PCA demonstrates near-linear scalability with dataset size and qubit count, leveraging the independence of quantum circuit execution and structured operations to maintain efficiency. A QNN-based implementation of Q-PCA further validates its ability to align data with principal components, maximize variance, and enable effective dimensionality reduction. These findings emphasize the potential of Q-PCA for efficient quantum-enhanced data analysis while underscoring the need for optimization in QSVM and further exploration of Q-PCA’s capabilities for real-world quantum computing applications.

In this work, we studied the use of Quantum Machine Learning (QML) algorithms for binary classification and compared their performance with classical Machine Learning (ML) methods. QML merges principles of Quantum Computing (QC) and ML, offering improved efficiency and potential quantum advantage in data-driven tasks and when solving complex problems. In binary classification, where the goal is to assign data to one of two categories, QML uses quantum algorithms to process large datasets efficiently. Quantum algorithms like Quantum Support Vector Machines (QSVM) and Quantum Neural Networks (QNN) exploit quantum parallelism and entanglement to enhance performance over classical methods. This study focuses on two common QML algorithms, Quantum Support Vector Classifier (QSVC) and QNN. We used the Qiskit software and conducted the experiments with three different datasets. Data preprocessing included dimensionality reduction using Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and standardization using scalers. The results showed that quantum algorithms demonstrated competitive performance against their classical counterparts in terms of accuracy, while QSVC performed better than QNN. These findings suggest that QML holds potential for improving computational efficiency in binary classification tasks. This opens the way for more efficient and scalable solutions in complex classification challenges and shows the complementary role of quantum computing.

This research contributes to the emerging field of QML by examining its potential advantages and future implications in addressing complex data processing challenges.
Quantum Machine Learning (QML) has emerged as a paradigm that combines the computational advantages of quantum computing with the predictive capabilities of machine learning to address complex data classification problems. As data dimensionality increases rapidly and classical learning algorithms face scalability constraints, QML leverages quantum parallelism, entanglement, and high-dimensional Hilbert space representations to enhance learning performance. This paper reviews and analyses advanced QML algorithms, including Quantum Support Vector Machines (QSVM), Variational Quantum Circuits (VQC), Quantum Neural Networks (QNN), and Quantum Kernel Estimation, for optimizing both binary and multi-class classification tasks under high-complexity conditions. The proposed QML framework is evaluated on benchmark datasets like MNIST, the Breast Cancer Wisconsin (BCW) dataset, and synthetic nonlinear datasets, and is compared against classical machine learning baselines, including Support Vector Machines (SVM), Random Forests (RF), and Deep Neural Networks (DNN). The results demonstrate notable improvements in classification accuracy (up to 96.8%), decision margins, and computational efficiency in quantum-suitable data regimes, while also highlighting current limitations related to noise, circuit depth, and hardware constraints. Overall, the study presents a unified QML framework, theoretical formulations, and experimental evaluations that illustrate the potential of quantum algorithms for next-generation classification tasks.
Quantum machine learning has emerged as a promising frontier, leveraging the principles of quantum computing to enhance classical algorithms. This paper proposes an optimized Quantum Support Vector Classifier (QSVC) for the classification of the MNIST dataset (a benchmark in handwritten digit recognition). We employ a Chebyshev Parameterized Quantum Circuit (PQC) with an increased number of qubits and layers, and utilize an existing projected quantum kernel method to effectively capture the complex patterns in the data. To enhance model robustness, data augmentation techniques are applied, and dimensionality reduction is performed using Principal Component Analysis (PCA). The proposed QSVC demonstrates competitive accuracy on both the training and testing datasets, highlighting the potential of quantum kernel methods in practical machine learning applications. A comparative analysis with classical Support Vector Machines (SVM) demonstrates the feasibility of quantum methods for high-dimensional classification tasks. Additionally, we investigate the impact of varying the number of qubits in the quantum circuit, providing in-depth insights into the scalability and performance trade-offs of quantum kernel methods.
Research using innovative, rapidly evolving quantum-based systems is becoming increasingly important. The acceleration provided by the real use of a few quantum computers in the world constitutes very important steps for the computer world. Quantum-based systems are also frequently used in data science and machine learning. In this study, Quantum Support Vector Machine (QSVM), a quantum-based machine learning algorithm, is compared with classical machine learning algorithms. IBM - Studies on quantum computer simulation have been carried out. The data dimension is reduced by first applying Principal Component Analysis (PCA) to the dataset. Afterwards, analyzes were made and the results were presented comparatively. The highest performance of the QSVM algorithm was obtained at 92.3%. Compared to classical machine learning algorithms, the performance of the QSVM algorithm is slightly lower. It is thought that higher performance and speed will be achieved in QSVM by eliminating limitations such as limited qubit resources and system restrictions. It is clear that the results found are promising for quantum-based machine learning algorithms.
The rapid growth of computer vision and increasingly complex image recognition tasks has exposed fundamental computational limitations of classical machine learning models, motivating the exploration of quantum computing as an emerging new paradigm. This paper presents a comprehensive benchmarking study of classical and quantum machine learning models for image recognition on the MNIST handwritten digit dataset, evaluating both traditional models, a Classical Support Vector Machine (CSVM) and a Quantum Support Vector Machine (QSVM), and deep neural network models, a Classical Convolutional Neural Network (CCNN) and a Quantum Convolutional Neural Network (QCNN), across four performance dimensions: classification accuracy, computational runtime, parameter count, and memory requirements. Experiments are conducted as functions of both feature dimensionality and sample size, and across CPU and GPU execution environments, providing a controlled, multidimensional comparison to address gaps in prior work. For the SVM-based models, QSVM consistently outperforms CSVM in accuracy, reaching ∼ 0.90 versus ∼ 0.85 at 1,000 samples, with a higher computational cost. A feature count of 10 qubits and a sample size in the range of 200 -- 500 emerge as practical operating points that balance accuracy and runtime. For the neural network models, CCNN and QCNN achieve comparable classification accuracy, both exceeding 0.96 at 64 features and 60,000 samples, yet QCNN offers superior parameter and memory efficiency at higher feature counts, while incurring higher runtime. Across both model families, quantum models consistently outperform classical models by greater margins in accuracy as feature dimensionality or sample size increases.
