Quantum computing offers a promising avenue to overcome these limitations by introducing a quantum counterpart-Quantum Convolutional Neural Networks (QCNNs).
Quantum computing enhances machine learning by offering new ways to process data and solve computationally intensive tasks more efficiently.
Quantum computing is viewed in many ways as the successor of classical computers — subsequently, quantum machine learning would be the successor of classical machine learning models. The theory of quantum machine learning is derived from the various concepts of quantum computing, machine learning, probabilistic theories, and classical ML models. While improving the run times of machine learning models using quantum computing will certainly boost efficiency, there are other ways to do so–such as the fact that QML models have the potential to learn from smaller amounts of data. So from a practical standpoint, quantum computing machine learning models can efficiently factor and classify complex yet condensed data sets. Quantum machine learning models can run through far more permutations and analyze the data yielded from each interaction. In the long term, the increased learning capacity and efficiency of quantum machine learning models may prove useful for solving some of the world’s greatest challenges.

See Appendix[C.1](https://arxiv.org/html/2511.01253v1#A3.SS1 "C.1 Quantum Computers Have a ≈10¹³ Slowdown ‣ Appendix C Trends in Number of Superconducting Qubits ‣ Quantum Deep Learning Still Needs a Quantum Leap"), a quantum algorithm with asymptotic scaling O(N)O(\sqrt{N}) must be used on problem size greater than 10 26 10^{26} to have speedup over a classical algorithm with O(N)O(N) scaling (10 13x=x⇒x=10 26 10^{13}\sqrt{x}=x\Rightarrow x=10^{26}). We estimate the time needed for our computation based on error correction overhead and gate time (see Appendix[C.1](https://arxiv.org/html/2511.01253v1#A3.SS1 "C.1 Quantum Computers Have a ≈10¹³ Slowdown ‣ Appendix C Trends in Number of Superconducting Qubits ‣ Quantum Deep Learning Still Needs a Quantum Leap")). We’ve collected data on trends in 2-qubit gate error rates in Fig[6](https://arxiv.org/html/2511.01253v1#A3.F6 "Figure 6 ‣ C.2 Trends in Quantum Computer Gate Time ‣ Appendix C Trends in Number of Superconducting Qubits ‣ Quantum Deep Learning Still Needs a Quantum Leap") from [Ruane et al., [2025](https://arxiv.org/html/2511.01253v1#bib.bib70)].
