The study compared six families of quantum machine learning models with classical counterparts using identical correlation-derived features across four large neuroimaging cohorts. Across all cohorts, quantum kernels performed statistically indistinguishable from matched classical kernels, with average accuracy differences within 1.4 percentage points. While a hybrid quantum convolutional network matched classical accuracy and a trainable quantum kernel slightly improved AUC on ABIDE I, overall quantum models did not consistently outperform classical ones, providing a feature‑matched benchmark of 284 comparisons.

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.
