Abstract

Quantum Machine Learning (QML) algorithms to solve classifications problems have been made available thanks to recent advancements in quantum computation. While the number of qubits are still relatively small, they have been used for "quantum enhancement" of machine learning. An important question is related to the efficacy of such protocols. We evaluate this efficacy using common baseline data sets, in addition to recent coronavirus spread data as well as the quantum metal-insulator transition in three dimensions. For the computation, we used the 16 qubit IBM quantum computer. We find that the "quantum enhancement" is not generic and fails for more complex machine learning tasks.
