Quantum-inspired machine learning for exponentially big neural data analysis

Abstract

Machine learning algorithms specialized for neural data have allowed the extraction of information encoded in the brain. As an example, in previous studies, the images human subjects see were reconstructed from their brain activity measured via functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) [1]. However, the application of those machine learning algorithms to high-resolution fMRI data, which may become mainstream in the near future, is limited due to their high computational cost. To solve this problem, scalable machine learning algorithms are being designed by utilizing computational techniques developed in the field of quantum computation [2,3]. In this report, taking one of the popular statistical methods, principal component analysis (PCA), as an example, we show that machine algorithms can be approximated with the use of such quantum-inspired techniques. The computational time and approximation performance of quantum-inspired PCA are demonstrated. The main results of this report have been presented in a previous paper by the author [3].

Near-optimal quantum kernel principal component analysis

Youle Wang

Abstract Kernel principal component analysis (kernel PCA) is a nonlinear dimensionality reduction technique that employs kernel functions to map data into a high-dimensional feature space, thereby extending the applicability of linear PCA to nonlinear data and facilitating the extraction of informative principal components. However, kernel PCA necessitates the manipulation of large-scale matrices, leading to high computational complexity and posing challenges for efficient implementation in big data environments. Quantum computing has recently been integrated with kernel methods in machine learning, enabling effective analysis of input data within intractable feature spaces. Although existing quantum kernel PCA proposals promise exponential speedups, they impose stringent requirements on quantum hardware that are challenging to fulfill. In this work, we propose a quantum algorithm for kernel PCA by establishing a connection between quantum kernel methods and block encoding, thereby diagonalizing the centralized kernel matrix on a quantum computer. The query complexity is logarithmic with respect to the size of the data vector, D , and linear with respect to the size of the dataset. An exponential speedup could be achieved when the dataset consists of a few high-dimensional vectors, wherein the dataset size is polynomial in log ⁡ ( D ) , with D being significantly large. In contrast to existing work, our algorithm enhances the efficiency of quantum kernel PCA and reduces the requirements for quantum hardware. Furthermore, we have also demonstrated that the algorithm based on block encoding matches the lower bound of query complexity, indicating that our algorithm is nearly optimal. Our research has laid down new pathways for developing quantum machine learning algorithms aimed at addressing tangible real-world problems and demonstrating quantum advantages within machine learning.

Quantum-inspired principal component analysis for exponentially large dimensional data

Principal component analysis (PCA) is a widely used statistical tool for extracting low-dimensional structures underlying multivariate data. However, its application to high-dimensional data is limited due to its large computational time. While the conventional PCA algorithm requires polynomial time, using a quantum-inspired algorithm as a subroutine, we have implemented an algorithm that approximates it with computational time proportional to the logarithm of the input dimensionality. The computational efficiency and performance of the implemented algorithm, quantum-inspired PCA, are experimentally evaluated on synthetic and real datasets.

Quantum Machine Learning (QML) has emerged as a promising paradigm that integrates quantum computing concepts with machine learning techniques to tackle complex big data optimization problems. By utilizing quantum features such as superposition, entanglement, and parallelism, QML algorithms can accelerate tasks like clustering, classification, and dimensionality reduction, which are traditionally computationally demanding. Recent advancements indicate strong potential for quantum-inspired optimization in fields including cybersecurity, financial portfolio management, Industry 4.0, and healthcare analytics. This paper provides a comprehensive survey of QML algorithms designed for big data optimization, examining their advantages, limitations, and application domains. Additionally, it discusses the performance trade-offs associated with hybrid quantum–classical frameworks and highlights future research directions aimed at creating secure, scalable, and resource-efficient quantum solutions for large-scale, data-driven decision-making. As data volumes continue to expand at extremely rapid rates, processing big data with traditional machine learning (ML) techniques has become increasingly challenging. ML models often struggle with issues related to computational power, efficient parameter tuning, accurate model selection, and maintaining high performance when dealing with massive datasets. Deep learning approaches—such as convolutional neural networks (CNNs)—demand substantial computational resources to train on large-scale supervised learning tasks. Moreover, the difficulty of training these networks grows significantly as the size and complexity of the datasets increase. In response to these limitations, Quantum Machine Learning (QML) has emerged as a promising research domain at the intersection of quantum computing and machine learning. Quantum computers operate fundamentally differently from classical systems, using the principles of quantum mechanics to encode and process information. As a result, quantum computational methods have the potential to address certain problems that are computationally intensive or infeasible for classical machines.

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.
