The healthcare systems produce a tremendous volume of medical data which may be in the form of patient records, laboratory test results and diagnostic reports. It is quite necessary to analyze such data accurately and efficiently in order to detect diseases early and plan appropriate treatment . Conventional machine learning methods have a tendency to struggling with large-dimensional and complicated medical data. To address these shortcomings, this project suggests a hybrid Quantum Machine Learning (QML) scheme of analyzing medical data and diagnosing a disease. The suggested system combines the classical data preprocessing with the quantum-enhanced data learning algorithms including Variational Quantum Circuits (VQC) and Quantum Support Vector Machines (QSVM). Medical data is first processed by cleaning, normalizing and encoding to quantum states. Complex patterns and correlations that traditional algorithms can hardly be able to learn are then learned with the quantum model. The measures used to judge the performance are accuracy, precision, recall and F1-score. The results of the experimental process show that the model based on QML yields better diagnostic accuracy than the conventional machine learning. This is where there is great potential in real time medical decision support systems, with the future prediction of disease and the personalized solution of care. The suggested framework indicates the potential and benefits of switching to quantum computing methods in healthcare analytics.
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.

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.
Abstract Leukemia is a life-threatening blood cancer that requires early and accurate diagnosis to improve patient outcomes. Traditional diagnostic methods based on manual examination of blood smear images are time-consuming and prone to human error. With the advancement of artificial intelligence, automated detection systems using machine learning and deep learning techniques have shown promising results. However, classical models face limitations in handling complex feature spaces efficiently. To address this, this project proposes a hybrid approach titled “Leukemia Detection using Quantum Machine Learning”, which integrates classical image processing with quantum computing techniques. In this work, microscopic blood smear images from a publicly available Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia dataset are utilized. The images undergo preprocessing steps including resizing, noise removal using Gaussian filtering, and normalization to enhance data quality. A Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) is employed for classical feature extraction, transforming image data into meaningful feature vectors. These features are further reduced using Principal Component Analysis (PCA) to make them suitable for quantum processing. The reduced feature set is encoded into quantum states using both angle encoding and amplitude encoding techniques. Quantum properties such as superposition and entanglement are leveraged through parameterized quantum circuits. Two quantum machine learning models, namely Quantum Support Vector Machine (QSVM) and Quantum Neural Network (QNN), are implemented to perform multi-class classification of leukemia stages, including Benign, Early, Pre, and Pro. The performance of both models is evaluated and compared using metrics such as accuracy, confusion matrix, and classification report. The proposed hybrid classical-quantum framework demonstrates the potential of quantum machine learning in medical image analysis. By combining deep learning with quantum algorithms, the system aims to improve diagnostic accuracy and computational efficiency. This approach not only enhances leukemia detection but also highlights the applicability of quantum computing in real-world healthcare problems, paving the way for future advancements in intelligent medical diagnosis systems.
Breast cancer continues to be among the most common causes of cancer death globally, with early and precise diagnosis playing a pivotal role in enhancing patient survival. Traditional machine learning (ML) techniques have shown great promise in the field of medical imaging and diagnosis; however, the emergence of quantum machine learning (QML) offers new avenues for the improvement of pattern discovery and diagnostic accuracy in high-dimensional medical data. This work describes a thorough benchmark comparison of quantum and classical machine learning methods for breast cancer diagnosis over the Wisconsin Diagnostic Breast Cancer data and mammographic image data. We compare variational quantum classifiers (VQC), quantum kernel methods (QKM), quantum convolutional neural networks (QCNNs), and hybrid quantum-classical neural structures with traditional classical baselines like support vector machines (SVM) and convolutional neural networks (CNN). QKM techniques perform better in high-dimensional feature spaces and better generalize on external validation sets. This implementation framework describes in depth how to develop, train, and deploy QML models in the clinical workflow, including optimization approaches, code structures, and deployment issues. The work demonstrates that it is possible to streamline breast cancer screening and diagnosis using QML with more accurate and more efficient solutions, which would lead to a huge impact on patient outcomes.
