Abstract

Quantum machine learning (QML) provides a transformative approach to data analysis by integrating the principles of quantum computing with classical machine learning methods. With the exponential growth of data and the increasing complexity of computational tasks, quantum algorithms offer tremendous advantages in terms of processing speed, memory efficiency, and the ability to resolve issues intractable for classical systems. In this work, the use of QML techniques for both supervised and unsupervised learning problems is explored. Quantum-enhanced models such Quantum Support Vector Machines (QSVMs) and Quantum Neural Networks (QNNs) show outstanding performance in classification and regression tasks by using quantum kernels and entanglement in supervised learning. Moreover, hybrid quantum-classical solutions offer useful implementations on noisy intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) devices, hence bridging the gap between present quantum technology and practical uses. By means of comparative analysis, this paper emphasizes the possible benefits and drawbacks of QML, thereby providing understanding of its future importance in sectors including material science, finance, and healthcare. In the end, QML opens the path for a new era of intelligent data processing and solves until unthinkable difficult challenges.
