Abstract in brief

  • This research introduces a new quantum machine learning approach, specifically quantum neural networks, to classify COVID-19 from CT scans and shows it outperforms traditional deep learning models in accuracy and speed.
  • The study demonstrates that quantum algorithms can process complex clinical image data more efficiently, with significantly faster training times—about half the time compared to conventional GPU methods—and higher accuracy in distinguishing COVID-19 from other pneumonia types.
  • Overall, the findings suggest that quantum-based models have strong potential to improve early diagnosis in medicine by providing quicker and more accurate analysis of medical images like CT scans.
