Quantum AI for Cancer Diagnostic Biomarker Discovery

Quantum machine learning offers a promising new paradigm for computational biology by leveraging quantum mechanical principles to enhance cancer classification, biomarker discovery, and bioinformatics diagnostics. In this study, we apply QML to identify subtype specific biomarkers for lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) and lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC), the two predominant forms of non-small cell lung cancer. Our methodology involves a two-phase process: in Phase 1, differential expression analysis and methylation analysis between tumor and normal samples allows us to identify LUAD-specific and LUSC-specific genes, revealing potential prognostic biomarkers for cancer subtypes. Phase 2 focuses on developing a quantum classifier capable of distinguishing between LUAD and LUSC tumors, as well as between tumor and normal samples. This classifier not only enhances diagnostic precision but also demonstrates the quantum advantage in processing large-scale multiomic datasets. Our results consistently demonstrated that Sample3, representing the combined gene set, achieved the highest overall predictive performance in all metrics. These results demonstrate that QML provides an effective and scalable approach for biomarker discovery and subtype specific cancer classification. GO enrichment analysis highlighted the significant involvement of genes in synaptic signaling, ion channel regulation, and neuronal development. In the quantum phase, KEGG analysis further identified enrichment in cancer-associated pathways, including neurotrophin, MAPK, Ras, and PI3KAkt signaling, with key genes such as NGFR, NTRK2, and NTF3 suggesting a central role in neurotrophinmediated oncogenic processes. Our findings highlight the growing potential of quantum computing to advance precision oncology and next-generation biomedical analytics.

Quantum Machine Learning for Complex Systems

Quantum machine learning (QML) is rapidly transitioning from theoretical promise to practical relevance across data-intensive scientific domains. In this Review, we provide a structured overview of recent advances that bridge foundational quantum learning principles with real-world applications. We survey foundational QML paradigms, including variational quantum algorithms, quantum kernel methods, and neural-network quantum states, with emphasis on their applicability to complex quantum systems. We examine neural-network quantum states as expressive variational models for correlated matter, non-equilibrium dynamics, and open quantum systems, and discuss fundamental challenges associated with training and sampling. Recent advances in quantum-enhanced sampling and diagnostics of learning dynamics, including information-theoretic tools, are reviewed as mechanisms for improving scalability and trainability. The Review further highlights application-driven QML frameworks in drug discovery, cancer biology, and agro-climate modeling, where data complexity and constraints motivate hybrid quantum-classical approaches. We conclude with a discussion of federated quantum machine learning as a route to distributed, privacy-preserving quantum intelligence. Overall, this Review presents a unified perspective on the opportunities and limitations of QML for complex systems.

Multimodal Quantum Vision Transformer for Enzyme Commission Classification from Biochemical Representations

Accurately predicting enzyme functionality remains one of the major challenges in computational biology, particularly for enzymes with limited structural annotations or sequence homology. We present a novel multimodal Quantum Machine Learning (QML) framework that enhances Enzyme Commission (EC) classification by integrating four complementary biochemical modalities: protein sequence embeddings, quantum-derived electronic descriptors, molecular graph structures, and 2D molecular image representations. Quantum Vision Transformer (QVT) backbone equipped with modality-specific encoders and a unified cross-attention fusion module. By integrating graph features and spatial patterns, our method captures key stereoelectronic interactions behind enzyme function. Experimental results demonstrate that our multimodal QVT model achieves a top-1 accuracy of 85.1%, outperforming sequence-only baselines by a substantial margin and achieving better performance results compared to other QML models.

Multi-Omic and Quantum Machine Learning Integration for Lung Subtypes Classification

Quantum Machine Learning (QML) is a red-hot field that brings novel discoveries and exciting opportunities to resolve, speed up, or refine the analysis of a wide range of computational problems. In the realm of biomedical research and personalized medicine, the significance of multi-omics integration lies in its ability to provide a thorough and holistic comprehension of complex biological systems. This technology links fundamental research to clinical practice. The insights gained from integrated omics data can be translated into clinical tools for diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment planning. The fusion of quantum computing and machine learning holds promise for unraveling complex patterns within multi-omics datasets, providing unprecedented insights into the molecular landscape of lung cancer. Due to the heterogeneity, complexity, and high dimensionality of multi-omic cancer data, characterized by the vast number of features (such as gene expression, micro-RNA, and DNA methylation) relative to the limited number of lung cancer patient samples, our prime motivation for this paper is the integration of multi-omic data, unique feature selection, and diagnostic classification of lung subtypes: lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC-I) and lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD-II) using quantum machine learning. We developed a method for finding the best differentiating features between LUAD and LUSC datasets, which has the potential for biomarker discovery.

QPSO-CD: Quantum-behaved Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm with Cauchy Distribution

Motivated by particle swarm optimization (PSO) and quantum computing theory, we have presented a quantum variant of PSO (QPSO) mutated with Cauchy operator and natural selection mechanism (QPSO-CD) from evolutionary computations. The performance of proposed hybrid quantum-behaved particle swarm optimization with Cauchy distribution (QPSO-CD) is investigated and compared with its counterparts based on a set of benchmark problems. Moreover, QPSO-CD is employed in well-studied constrained engineering problems to investigate its applicability. Further, the correctness and time complexity of QPSO-CD are analysed and compared with the classical PSO. It has been proven that QPSO-CD handles such real-life problems efficiently and can attain superior solutions in most of the problems. The experimental results showed that QPSO associated with Cauchy distribution and natural selection strategy outperforms other variants in the context of stability and convergence.

Matrix Product State Based Quantum Classifier

In recent years, interest in expressing the success of neural networks to the quantum computing has increased significantly. Tensor network theory has become increasingly popular and widely used to simulate strongly entangled correlated systems. Matrix product state (MPS) is the well-designed class of tensor network states, which plays an important role in processing of quantum information. In this paper, we have shown that matrix product state as one-dimensional array of tensors can be used to classify classical and quantum data. We have performed binary classification of classical machine learning dataset Iris encoded in a quantum state. Further, we have investigated the performance by considering different parameters on the ibmqx4 quantum computer and proved that MPS circuits can be used to attain better accuracy. Further, the learning ability of MPS quantum classifier is tested to classify evapotranspiration ($ET_{o}$) for Patiala meteorological station located in Northern Punjab (India), using three years of historical dataset (Agri). Furthermore, we have used different performance metrics of classification to measure its capability. Finally, the results are plotted and degree of correspondence among values of each sample is shown.

Implementing Entangled States on a Quantum Computer

The study of tensor network theory is an important field and promises a wide range of experimental and quantum information theoretical applications. Matrix product state is the most well-known example of tensor network states, which provides an effective and efficient representation of one-dimensional quantum systems. Indeed, it lies at the heart of density matrix renormalization group (DMRG), a most common method for simulation of one-dimensional strongly correlated quantum systems. It has got attention from several areas varying from solid-state systems to quantum computing and quantum simulators. We have considered maximally entangled matrix product states (GHZ and W). Here, we designed the quantum circuits for implementing the matrix product states. In this paper, we simulated the matrix product states in customized IBM (2-qubit, 3-qubit and 4-qubit) quantum systems and determined the probability distribution among the quantum states.
