arXiv:2604. 10933v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Deep neural networks remain highly vulnerable to adversarial perturbations, limiting their reliability in security- and safety-critical applications.
The paper investigates the role of quantum computing in network‑security classification through two experiments. First, it evaluates near‑term quantum‑kernel support vector machines on datasets such as KDD Cup 1999, CICIDS2017, and BoT‑IoT, finding that quantum kernels can match or sometimes improve classical baselines, though classical RBF kernels often remain stronger. Second, it explores long‑term memory efficiency using quantum oracle sketching (QOS), showing that quantum methods can achieve comparable accuracy with a smaller effective memory footprint than explicit storage, suggesting a potential advantage in memory‑efficient data access for streaming classification tasks.
arXiv:2510. 03389v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Current quantum computers require algorithms that use limited resources economically.
The paper compares classical and hybrid quantum machine learning models for a trigger-like binary classification task using CMS open data. Eight classical models (SVM, ANN, CNN, LSTM) and eight quantum counterparts are evaluated under identical preprocessing, data splits, and decision thresholds, with performance measured by accuracy, ROC‑AUC, F1‑score, precision, and recall. The best classical model is an artificial neural network (93.53 % accuracy, 0.9819 ROC‑AUC), while the best quantum model is a quantum convolutional network (90.89 % accuracy, 0.9731 ROC‑AUC), indicating that within an eight‑qubit budget the quantum models do not surpass the classical ones.
arXiv:2607. 11843v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Quantum Neural Networks (QNNs) are a promising framework for quantum machine learning on near-term quantum devices, but their security risks remain insufficiently understood.
arXiv:2512. 09586v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Quantum circuit design is a key bottleneck for practical quantum machine learning on complex, real-world data.
