Machine learning on quantum experimental data toward solving quantum many-body problems

Despite the promise for performance and accuracy improvements of quantum inspired (QI) algorithms over classical machine learning (ML) algorithms, such gains have not been realized in practice. The quantum inspired algorithms can theoretically achieve significant speed up based on sampling assumptions and have thus far failed to outperform the existing classical ML models in practical applications. The speedup of quantum machine learning (QML) algorithms assume the access to data in quantum random access memory (QRAM) which is a strong assumption with current quantum architectures. QI algorithms assume sample and query (SQ) access to input vector and norms of matrices using a dynamic data structure. We explore the components of these models and the assumptions in this paper by surveying the recent works in QML and QI Machine learning (QIML) algorithms. We limit our study to QML and QIML models on achieving a speed up over classical ML techniques rather than individual proofs of these algorithms. This study highlights the assumptions being made that are currently not practical for QML and QIML algorithms in achieving performance advantage over classical ML algorithms.

Classical machine learning (ML) provides a potentially powerful approach to solving challenging quantum many-body problems in physics and chemistry. However, the advantages of ML over traditional methods have not been firmly established. In this work, we prove that classical ML algorithms can efficiently predict ground-state properties of gapped Hamiltonians after learning from other Hamiltonians in the same quantum phase of matter. By contrast, under a widely accepted conjecture, classical algorithms that do not learn from data cannot achieve the same guarantee. We also prove that classical ML algorithms can efficiently classify a wide range of quantum phases. Extensive numerical experiments corroborate our theoretical results in a variety of scenarios, including Rydberg atom systems, two-dimensional random Heisenberg models, symmetry-protected topological phases, and topologically ordered phases.

Building machine learning (ML) tools, or systems, for use in manufacturing environments is a challenge that extends far beyond the understanding of the ML algorithm. Yet, these challenges, outside of the algorithm, are less discussed in literature. Therefore, the purpose of this work is to practically illustrate several best practices, and challenges, discovered while building an ML system to detect tool wear in metal CNC machining. Namely, one should focus on the data infrastructure first; begin modeling with simple models; be cognizant of data leakage; use open-source software; and leverage advances in computational power. The ML system developed in this work is built upon classical ML algorithms and is applied to a real-world manufacturing CNC dataset. The best-performing random forest model on the CNC dataset achieves a true positive rate (sensitivity) of 90.3% and a true negative rate (specificity) of 98.3%. The results are suitable for deployment in a production environment and demonstrate the practicality of the classical ML algorithms and techniques used. The system is also tested on the publicly available UC Berkeley milling dataset. All the code is available online so others can reproduce and learn from the results.

Time-interval temporal patterns can beat and explain the malware

In the actual panorama of machine learning (ML) algorithms, the issue of the real-time information extraction/classification/manipulation/analysis of data streams (DS) is acquiring an ever-growing relevance. They arrive generally at high speed and always require an unsupervised real-time analysis for individuating long-range and higher order correlations among data that are continuously changing over time (phase transitions). This emphasizes the infinitary character of the issue, i.e., the continuous change of the signifying number of degrees of freedom characterizing the statistical representation function, challenging the classical ML algorithms, both in their classical and quantum versions, as far as all are based on the (stochastic) search for the global minimum of some cost/energy function. The physical analogue must be studied in the realm of quantum field theory (QFT) for dissipative systems as biological and neural systems, which are able to map between different phases of quantum fields, using the formalism of the Bogoliubov transform (BT). By applying the BT in a reversed way, on the system-thermal bath energetically balanced states, it is possible to define the powerful computational tool of the “doubling of the degrees of freedom” (DDF), making the choice of the signifying finite number of the degrees of freedom dynamic and then automatic, so to suggest a different class of unsupervised ML algorithms for solving the DS issue.

IntroductionThe COVID-19 pandemic overwhelmed healthcare systems with severe shortages in hospital resources such as ICU beds, specialized doctors, and respiratory ventilators. In this situation, reducing COVID-19 readmissions could potentially maintain hospital capacity. By employing machine learning (ML), we can predict the likelihood of COVID-19 readmission risk, which can assist in the optimal allocation of restricted resources to seriously ill patients.MethodsIn this retrospective single-center study, the data of 1225 COVID-19 patients discharged between January 9, 2020, and October 20, 2021 were analyzed. First, the most important predictors were selected using the horse herd optimization algorithms. Then, three classical ML algorithms, including decision tree, support vector machine, and k-nearest neighbors, and a hybrid algorithm, namely water wave optimization (WWO) as a precise metaheuristic evolutionary algorithm combined with a neural network were used to construct predictive models for COVID-19 readmission. Finally, the performance of prediction models was measured, and the best-performing one was identified.ResultsThe ML algorithms were trained using 17 validated features. Among the four selected ML algorithms, the WWO had the best average performance in tenfold cross-validation (accuracy: 0.9705, precision: 0.9729, recall: 0.9869, specificity: 0.9259, F-measure: 0.9795).ConclusionsOur findings show that the WWO algorithm predicts the risk of readmission of COVID-19 patients more accurately than other ML algorithms. The models developed herein can inform frontline clinicians and healthcare policymakers to manage and optimally allocate limited hospital resources to seriously ill COVID-19 patients.

Prediction is an important way to analyse stroke risk management. This study explored the critical influencing factors of stroke, used the classical multilayer perception (MLP) and radial basis function (RBF) machine learning (ML) algorithms to develop the model for stroke prediction. The two models were trained with Bagging and Boosting ensemble learning algorithms. The performances of the prediction models were also compared with other classical ML algorithms. The result showed that (1) total cholesterol (TC) and other nine factors were selected as principal factors for the stroke prediction; (2) the MLP model outperformed RBF model in terms of accuracy, generalization and inter-rater reliability; (3) ensemble algorithm was superior to single algorithms for high-dimension dataset in this study. It may come to the conclusion that this study improved the stroke prediction methods and contributed much to the prevention of stroke.

Machine learning today becomes more and more effective instrument to solve many particular problems, where there are difficulties to apply well known and described math model. In other words - it is a great tool to describe nonlinear phenomena. We tried to use this technique to improve existing process of stratigraphy and lithology interpretation and reduce costs on site by applying computer leaded predictions on the basis of existing on-field collected data. Article describes usage of machine learning algorithms for several geology data stratigraphy and lithology boundaries classification based on geophysics logging data for deposits in Kazakhstan. Correct marking of stratigraphy and lithology from geophysics logging data is complex non-linear task. To solve this task we applied several algorithms of machine learning: random forest, logistic regression, gradient boosting (scikit-learn library), k - nearest neighbour (KNN) and XGBoost.

In this work, we studied the use of Quantum Machine Learning (QML) algorithms for binary classification and compared their performance with classical Machine Learning (ML) methods. QML merges principles of Quantum Computing (QC) and ML, offering improved efficiency and potential quantum advantage in data-driven tasks and when solving complex problems. In binary classification, where the goal is to assign data to one of two categories, QML uses quantum algorithms to process large datasets efficiently. Quantum algorithms like Quantum Support Vector Machines (QSVM) and Quantum Neural Networks (QNN) exploit quantum parallelism and entanglement to enhance performance over classical methods. This study focuses on two common QML algorithms, Quantum Support Vector Classifier (QSVC) and QNN. We used the Qiskit software and conducted the experiments with three different datasets. Data preprocessing included dimensionality reduction using Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and standardization using scalers. The results showed that quantum algorithms demonstrated competitive performance against their classical counterparts in terms of accuracy, while QSVC performed better than QNN. These findings suggest that QML holds potential for improving computational efficiency in binary classification tasks. This opens the way for more efficient and scalable solutions in complex classification challenges and shows the complementary role of quantum computing.

to predict vestibular schwannoma (VS) response to radiosurgery by applying machine learning (ML) algorithms on radiomic features extracted from pre-treatment magnetic resonance (MR) images. patients with VS treated with radiosurgery in two Centers from 2004 to 2016 were retrospectively evaluated. Brain T1-weighted contrast-enhanced MR images were acquired before and at 24 and 36 months after treatment. Clinical and treatment data were collected contextually. Treatment responses were assessed considering the VS volume variation based on pre- and post-radiosurgery MR images at both time points. Tumors were semi-automatically segmented and radiomic features were extracted. Four ML algorithms (Random Forest, Support Vector Machine, Neural Network, and extreme Gradient Boosting) were trained and tested for treatment response (i.e., increased or non-increased tumor volume) using nested cross-validation. For training, feature selection was performed using the Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator, and the selected features were used as input to separately build the four ML classification algorithms. To overcome class imbalance during training, Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique was used. Finally, trained models were tested on the corresponding held out set of patients to evaluate balanced accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity. 108 patients treated with Cyberknife® were retrieved; an increased tumor volume was observed at 24 months in 12 patients, and at 36 months in another group of 12 patients. The Neural Network was the best predictive algorithm for response at 24 (balanced accuracy 73% ± 18%, specificity 85% ± 12%, sensitivity 60% ± 42%) and 36 months (balanced accuracy 65% ± 12%, specificity 83% ± 9%, sensitivity 47% ± 27%). radiomics may predict VS response to radiosurgery avoiding long-term follow-up as well as unnecessary treatment.

This study examines the impact of the COVID‐19 epidemic on students in Bangladesh through text classification using various machine learning (ML) algorithms and deep learning (DL) models. The pandemic led to emergency crisis protocols in the country, including self‐quarantine and the closure of educational and governmental institutions, resulting in significant negative impacts on individuals’ physical and mental health, including anxiety, sadness, and terror. To better understand the psychological effects of the epidemic, the authors collected survey data from 400 students in various divisions of Bangladesh using self‐administered questionnaires through Google Forms. Preprocessing techniques such as tokenization, filtering, and n‐gram modeling were used in the analysis. The study deployed eight different ML algorithms and DL models, including LSTM, BiLSTM, and CNN, to classify the effects on students’ academic, mental, and social lives. The results show that the ML classifier algorithms were highly effective, achieving accuracies of 95.00%, 93.75%, and 95.00% for academic, mental, and social life impact, respectively. Furthermore, hybrid DL models, such as CNN‐LSTM and CNN‐BiLSTM, produced good scores in predicting the impacts on students’ lives. Overall, this study provides valuable insights into the impacts of the COVID‐19 epidemic on students’ academic, mental, and social well‐being in Bangladesh.

6 - Machine learning and deep learning algorithms for fault diagnosis of photovoltaic systems

Although the consortium blockchains commonly adopt consensus algorithms with Byzantine fault tolerance (such as practical Byzantine fault tolerance (PBFT)), its consensus efficiency will be degraded by the existence of malicious nodes or behaviors. However, the existing researches mainly focus on the detection of malicious behaviors for public blockchains, but are rare about consortium blockchains. In this paper, an anomaly detection model based on machine learning (ML) classification algorithm is proposed for consortium blockchains that adopt PBFT. Besides, a two-stage process is proposed to reduce the resource consumption for anomaly detection. The data needed for proposed model only has two dimensions and is convenient to obtain. The results of experiment show that ML is very effective in anomaly detection for consortium blockchains. Specifically, the algorithms with the highest accuracy are convolutional neural networks (CNN), k-nearest neighbor (KNN) and support vector machines (SVM) in turn. However, KNN and SVM are more suitable because resource consumption of both algorithms are one third of CNN, and the accuracy rates are above 0.9 which is 0.9% lower than CNN.
