FAU Researchers Use Quantum Machine Learning to Predict Heart Disease

Insider Brief Press release – Cardiovascular disease remains a major global health challenge, causing millions of deaths each year and imposing substantial healthcare costs. Early, accurate diagnosis is critical for improving outcomes and enabling timely intervention. While conventional machine learning has shown promise in disease prediction, it often struggles with highly complex and nonlinear clinical data. […]
Florida Atlantic University researchers developed a quantum machine learning framework that achieved 90.26% accuracy in predicting heart disease using clinical data from 918 patients. The best-performing model, a Quantum Support Vector Machine using Angle Encoding, recorded 92.16% sensitivity, 83.42% specificity and an AUC of 0.93. The study evaluated five quantum feature mapping techniques and four quantum machine learning classifiers to assess their potential for healthcare analytics…
