Security intrusion detection using quantum machine learning techniques
Open accessAbstract
Conventional machine learning approaches applied for the security intrusion detection degrades in case of big data input ( $$10^6$$ and more samples in a dataset). Model training and computing by traditional machine learning executed on big data at a common computing environment may produce accurate outputs but take a long time, or produce poor accuracy by quick training, both disparate to malicious activity. The paper observes the quantum machine learning (QML) methods overcoming the barriers of big data and the computing abilities of common hardware for the purpose of high performance intrusion detection. Quantum support vector machine (QSVM) and quantum convolution neural network (QCNN) as concurrent methods are discussed and evaluated comparing to the conventional intrusion detectors running on the traditional computer. The QML-based intrusion detection utilizes our own dataset that implements the grouping of the network packets into the input streams eatable for the QML. We have developed the software solution that encodes the network traffic streams ready to the quantum computing. Experimental results show the ability of the QML-based intrusion detection for processing big data inputs with high accuracy (98%) providing a twice faster speed comparing to the conventional machine learning algorithms utilized for the same task.

“Among the above listed methods, QSVM is an effective computing model in case of working with a large amount of data – it does not tend to overfit, provides high accuracy when working with a big feature map, and allows use of the kernel trick [39, 40].”

The paper studies classical support-vector networks, not QSVM. Section 4 describes kernel-based feature-space calculations, and Sections 6.2–6.2.2 report strong accuracy on digit datasets, including one with 60,000 training patterns; Section 6.2.1 says increasing feature-space dimensionality showed no overfitting problems in those experiments.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-09-28, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-09-28 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Cited sources are checked with a language model’s help (gpt-6-sol).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
