Optimization Strategies in Quantum Machine Learning: A Performance Analysis
This study presents a comprehensive comparison of multiple optimization algorithms applied to a quantum classification model, utilizing the Cleveland dataset. Specifically, the research focuses on three prominent optimizers—COBYLA, L-BFGS-B, and ADAM—each employing distinct methodologies and widely recognized in the domain of quantum machine learning. The performance of predictive models using these optimizers is rigorously evaluated through key metrics, including accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 score. The findings reveal that the COBYLA optimizer outperforms the L-BFGS-B and ADAM optimizers across all performance metrics, achieving an accuracy of 92%, precision of 89%, recall of 97%, and F1 score of 93%. Furthermore, the COBYLA optimizer exhibits superior computational efficiency, requiring only 1 min of training time compared to 6 min for L-BFGS-B and 10 min for ADAM. These results underscore the critical role played by optimizer selection in enhancing model performance and efficiency in quantum machine learning applications, offering valuable insights for practitioners in the field.
