Multi-VQC: A Novel QML Approach for Enhancing Healthcare Classification

--Accurate and reliable diagnosis of diseases is crucial in enabling timely medical treatment and enhancing patient survival rates. In recent years, Machine Learning has revolutionized diagnostic practices by creating classification models capable of identifying diseases. However, these classification problems often suffer from significant class imbalances, which can inhibit the effectiveness of traditional models. Therefore, the interest in Quantum models has arisen, driven by the captivating promise of overcoming the limitations of the classical counterpart thanks to their ability to express complex patterns by mapping data in a higher-dimensional computational space. This work proposes a novel approach for enhancing the classification performance of Quantum Neural Networks (QNN) consisting of multiple V ariational Quantum Circuits (VQCs) arranged sequentially. This strategy increases the nonlinearity of the model by exploiting the measurement operation and improving its ability to capture complex patterns.
