| contents | Quantum machine learning (QML) is one of the most promising applications of quantum computation. However, it is still unclear whether quantum advantages exist when the data is of a classical nature and the search for practical, real-world applications of QML remains active. In this work, we apply the well-studied quantum support vector machine (QSVM), a powerful QML model, to a binary classification task which classifies peptides as either hemolytic or non-hemolytic. Using three peptide datasets, we apply and contrast the performance of the QSVM, numerous classical SVMs, and the best published results on the same peptide classification task, out of which the QSVM performs best. The contributions of this work include (i) the first application of the QSVM to this specific peptide classification task, (ii) an explicit demonstration of QSVMs outperforming the best published results attained with classical machine learning models on this classification task and (iii) empirical results showing that the QSVM is capable of outperforming many (and possibly all) classical SVMs on this classification task. This foundational work paves the way to verifiable quantum advantages in the field of computational biology and facilitates safer therapeutic development. |
