Danish Vasan, Mohammad Ali A. Hammoudeh, Abdulelah S Alghamdi
The integration of quantum computing with machine learning emerged as an approach to solving complex computational problems. This chapter provides an overview of quantum machine learning (QML), exploring the fundamental concepts, algorithms, and applications at the intersection of quantum computing and machine learning. We begin by introducing the basic principles of quantum mechanics relevant to QML, including qubits, quantum gates, and quantum parallelism. Then, we explore key topics such as quantum entanglement, superposition, and their role in quantum algorithms. We then discuss the landscape of QML, contrasting classical and quantum approaches and highlighting the potential of quantum computing to enhance machine learning algorithms. Furthermore, we discuss prominent QML algorithms, such as quantum support vector machines (QSVM) and quantum neural networks (QNN), elucidating their mathematical formulations and differences from classical counterparts. Real-world examples showcasing quantum speedup in machine learning tasks are presented to underscore the transformative potential of quantum computing. Finally, an overview of QML tools and frameworks is provided, enabling researchers to embark on their journey in exploring the exciting field of QML.
