Abnormal growth of cells in the brain and its surrounding tissues is known as a brain tumor. There are two types, one is benign (non-cancerous) and another is malignant (cancerous) which may cause death. The radiologists' ability to diagnose malignancies is greatly aided by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Brain cancer diagnosis has been considerably expedited by the field of computer-assisted diagnostics, especially in machine learning and deep learning. In our study, we categorize three different kinds of brain tumors using four transfer learning techniques. Our models were tested on a benchmark dataset of $3064$ MRI pictures representing three different forms of brain cancer. Notably, ResNet-50 outperformed other models with a remarkable accuracy of $99.06\%$. We stress the significance of a balanced dataset for improving accuracy without the use of augmentation methods. Additionally, we experimentally demonstrate our method and compare with other classification algorithms on the CE-MRI dataset using evaluations like F1-score, AUC, precision and recall.

The collaboration between quantum computing and classical machine learning offers potential advantages in natural language processing, particularly in the sentiment analysis of human emotions and opinions expressed in large-scale datasets. In this work, we propose a methodology for sentiment analysis using hybrid quantum-classical machine learning algorithms. We investigate quantum kernel approaches and variational quantum circuit-based classifiers and integrate them with classical dimension reduction techniques such as PCA and Haar wavelet transform. The proposed methodology is evaluated using two distinct datasets, based on English and Bengali languages. Experimental results show that after dimensionality reduction of the data, performance of the quantum-based hybrid algorithms were consistent and better than classical methods.

Fine-tuning BERT for text classification can be computationally challenging and requires careful hyper-parameter tuning. Recent studies have highlighted the potential of quantum algorithms to outperform conventional methods in machine learning and text classification tasks. In this work, we propose a hybrid approach that integrates an n-qubit quantum circuit with a classical BERT model for text classification. We evaluate the performance of the fine-tuned classical-quantum BERT and demonstrate its feasibility as well as its potential in advancing this research area. Our experimental results show that the proposed hybrid model achieves performance that is competitive with, and in some cases better than, the classical baselines on standard benchmark datasets. Furthermore, our approach demonstrates the adaptability of classical-quantum models for fine-tuning pre-trained models across diverse datasets. Overall, the hybrid model highlights the promise of quantum computing in achieving improved performance for text classification tasks.
