Analytical Estimation of Quantum Convolutional Neural Network and Convolutional Neural Network for Breast Cancer Detection

Uwizeyimana Leopoldine, Musoni Wilson

Experts predict that the use of artificial intelligence and quantum computing will transform medicine including medical imaging. One of the common malignant tumors in women and seriously threatens women’s physical and mental health is breast cancer. The high incidence and mortality of breast cancer are seriously threatening women’s physical and mental health. The long time it took to get breast cancer’s test result and the conditions which make delay without being treated which caused the loss of lives due to latency. Early screening for breast cancer via mammography, ultrasound (US) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can significantly improve the prognosis of patients. Artificial intelligence has been extensively researched for breast cancer screening and has demonstrated good performance in image identification tests. This research was introduced analytical estimation for quantum Convolutional Neural Network for breast cancer detection, such as in the identification, segmentation and classification of lesions, breast density assessment and breast cancer risk assessment. Objectives will be to: To detect the breast cancer on a quantum convolutional neural network algorithm using image recognition, to create and develop a CNN and QCNN algorithm that will detect breast Cancer using Deep Learning and to early predict pathological complete response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy and survival analysis using Deep Learning. Data was analyzed through the use of descriptive and deep learning models like CNN and QCNN models. This research used also Google Collab to analyze the data and used data analysis tools python as programming language. From the study results, we have demonstrated the efficacy of quantum convolutional neural networks (QCNNs) to detect breast cancer cells. Using the techniques of deep learning and supervised learning in the quantum framework, we have proposed and tested the effectiveness of quantum CNN on the quantum simulator available at the IBM quantum experience platform.

The role of data embedding in equivariant quantum convolutional neural networks

Sreetama Das, Stefano Martina, Filippo Caruso

Abstract Geometric deep learning refers to the scenario in which the symmetries of a dataset are used to constrain the parameter space of a neural network and thus, improve their trainability and generalization. Recently, this idea has been incorporated into the field of quantum machine learning, which has given rise to equivariant quantum neural networks (EQNNs). In this work, we investigate the role of classical-to-quantum embedding on the performance of equivariant quantum convolutional neural networks (EQCNNs) for the classification of images. We discuss the connection between the data embedding method and the resulting representation of a symmetry group and analyze how changing representation affects the expressibility of an EQCNN. We numerically compare the classification accuracy of EQCNNs with three different basis-permuted amplitude embeddings to the one obtained from a non-equivariant quantum convolutional neural network (QCNN). Our results show a clear dependence of classification accuracy on the underlying embedding, especially for initial training iterations. The improvement in classification accuracy of EQCNN over non-equivariant QCNN may be present or absent depending on the particular embedding and dataset used. The noisy simulation using simple noise models shows that certain EQCNNs are more robust to noise than non-equivariant QCNNs. It is expected that the results of this work can be useful to the community for a better understanding of the importance of data embedding choice in the context of geometric quantum machine learning.

A Quantum Convolutional Neural Network for Image Classification

Milind Upadhyay

From self-driving cars to medical diagnoses, machine learning (ML) has revolutionized our world in the last few decades. Additionally, Quantum Computing has considerable promise for the future, with superposition and entanglement making quantum algorithms much more efficient and effective than their classical counterparts. Quantum ML aims to apply these quantum principles to the groundbreaking field of ML, such as for image classification. Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) are very effective for classification, so we study a Quantum Convolutional Neural Network (QCNN) that is trained to distinguish between handwritten numbers in the MNIST dataset and compared to a similar-sized classical network. After tuning the QCNN and quantum encoding, the QCNN achieved comparable accuracy to the classical network.
