Article Abstract

Quantum federated learning (QFL) is an emerging interdisciplinary field that merges the principles of quantum computing (QC) and federated learning (FL), with the goal of leveraging quantum technologies to enhance privacy, security, and efficiency in the learning process. Currently, there is no comprehensive survey for this interdisciplinary field. This review offers a thorough, holistic examination of QFL. We aim to provide a comprehensive understanding of the principles, techniques, and emerging applications of QFL. We discuss the current state of research in this rapidly evolving field, identify challenges and opportunities associated with integrating these technologies, and outline future directions and open research questions. We propose a unique taxonomy of QFL techniques, categorized according to their characteristics and the quantum techniques employed. As the field of QFL continues to progress, we can anticipate further breakthroughs and applications across various industries, driving innovation and addressing challenges related to data privacy, security, and resource optimization. This review serves as a first-of-its-kind comprehensive guide for researchers and practitioners interested in understanding and advancing the field of QFL.

Protein kinases are central regulators of cell signaling and play pivotal roles in a wide array of diseases, most notably cancer and autoimmune disorders. The clinical success of kinase inhibitors-such as imatinib and osimertinib-has firmly established kinases as valuable drug targets. However, the development of selective, potent inhibitors remains challenging due to the conserved nature of the ATP-binding site, off-target effects, resistance mutations, and patient-specific variability.

Large-scale genomics data combined with Electronic Health Records (EHRs) illuminate the path towards personalized disease management and enhanced medical interventions. However, the absence of "gold standard" disease labels makes the development of machine learning models a challenging task. Additionally, imbalances in demographic representation within datasets compromise the development of unbiased healthcare solutions.

Early diagnosis of Parkinson's disease (PD) is crucial for timely treatment and disease management. Recent studies link PD to impaired facial muscle control, manifesting as "masked face" symptoms, offering a novel diagnostic approach through facial expression analysis. However, data privacy concerns and legal restrictions have resulted in significant "data silos", hindering data sharing and limiting the accuracy and generalizability of existing diagnostic models due to small, localized datasets.

The growing heterogeneity of cardiac patient data from hospitals and wearables necessitates predictive models that are tailored, comprehensible, and safeguard privacy. This study introduces PerFed-Cardio, a lightweight and interpretable semi-federated learning (Semi-FL) system for real-time cardiovascular risk stratification utilizing multimodal data, including cardiac imaging, physiological signals, and electronic health records (EHR). In contrast to conventional federated learning, where all clients engage uniformly, our methodology employs a personalized Semi-FL approach that enables high-capacity nodes (e.

Gait signals have been extensively investigated to diagnose Parkinson's disease (PD). However, the limited data and non-negligible individual differences hinder the practical application of PD diagnosis. To address this issue, a federated transferring multi-channel convolutional neural network is proposed to diagnose PD and assess its severity level under unseen and small samples.
