Quantum-Enhanced Machine Learning for Fake Review Detection: A Next-Gen Approach

Omar Albalooshi, Alavikunhu Panthakkan, Hussam Al Hamadi

Fake reviews pose a critical challenge to consumer trust and platform integrity in digital marketplaces. This paper introduces a hybrid quantum-classical machine learning framework for detecting fake reviews, leveraging quantum enhancements to improve predictive accuracy. Using the Amazon Fake Reviews dataset, baseline performance is established with classical classifiers, including Support Vector Machine (SVM), K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN), Naive Bayes (NB), Random Forest (RF), and Logistic Regression (LR). Quantum machine learning (QML) models employing Amplitude Embedding and entanglement-driven circuits are integrated with classical models to form hybrid classifiers. A meta-classifier combining quantum and classical embeddings further boosts model performance, achieving up to 98.10 % accuracy. To ensure interpretability, eXplainable AI (XAI) techniques, such as SHAP and LIME, are applied to analyze predictions and identify key linguistic features. This work demonstrates the potential of quantum-augmented AI for trust-critical applications in e-commerce, paving the way for future advancements in quantum-enhanced machine learning.

Coalition of explainable artificial intelligence and quantum computing in precision medicine

Soumyadeep Ray, Pronaya Bhattacharya, Ebrahim A. Mattar +1 more

This survey examines the convergence of Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) and Quantum Computing (QC) toward precision medicine. We review developments from 2018 to 2025, summarizing quantum algorithms, quantum-machine-learning models and XAI techniques applied to drug discovery, disease diagnosis, patient monitoring and biomarker identification. We introduce a taxonomy of hybrid and quantum-explainable approaches, evaluate NISQ hardware and encoding constraints, and compare interpretability methods (SHAP, LIME, QSHAP, QLRP, TSBA). Two case studies (doxorubicin cardiotoxicity prediction and pre-symptomatic IBD flare forecasting) demonstrate hybrid variational-quantum pipelines wrapped with SHAP-based explanations. We identify practical barriers (noise, data encoding, regulation, privacy) and outline research directions to benchmark clinical quantum advantage and develop scalable, transparent QXAI frameworks. The survey aims to guide interdisciplinary efforts toward trustworthy, scalable quantum-enabled precision healthcare.

Explainable Quantum Machine Learning Through Interpretation of Variational Circuit Outcomes in Classification Tasks

Muthukumaran Malarvel, K.P. Kaliyamurthie, Antonidoss A

This study explores explainability approaches that are independent of models, with a particular emphasis on Integrated Gradients (IG) and Baseline SHAP (BS) within the framework of parametrized quantum circuits (PQCs). After a thorough mathematical examination, we modify BS to a new Polynomial SHAP (qSHAP) approach optimized for PQCs; this allows us to estimate SHAP values efficiently using rankone polynomial approximations. We prove that qSHAP is resilient even in quantum contexts with noise by evaluating the stability of IG and BS in the presence of quantum noise via the central limit theorem. Tests on the Bars and Stripes dataset with one-, two-, and four-qubit classifiers confirm that our method works in different environments, such as classical simulations, noise models, and actual quantum computers. The results demonstrate that qSHAP offers consistent and dependable feature attributions, whereas IG's performance drops with noise. This suggests that qSHAP might be a useful tool for explainability in the near future of quantum machine learning, resistant to noise.
