Applications of quantum AI in brain disorder diagnosis: A systematic review.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Brain disorder diagnosis and prediction remain challenging because neuroimaging, electrophysiological, behavioral, and multimodal data are high-dimensional, noisy, heterogeneous, and limited by small clinical cohorts. This systematic review synthesised applications of quantum artificial intelligence (QAI) for brain disorder diagnosis, prediction, detection, and monitoring. METHODS: Following PRISMA guidelines, studies published from 2016 to 13 January 2026 were retrieved from Scopus, Web of Science, and IEEE Xplore. After screening, 36 studies met the eligibility criteria and were qualitatively analysed according to disorder category, data modality, QAI method, implementation setting, validation strategy, and performance. RESULTS: At the broader disease-group level, neurodegenerative disorders were the most frequently investigated, followed by mental health and psychiatric disorders. At the individual level, Parkinson's disease and schizophrenia were the leading applications, followed by depression, anxiety, Alzheimer's disease, and stress-related tasks. MRI-based modalities were the most frequently used data source, followed by multimodal data and EEG. Methodologically, primary QAI approaches were dominated by quantum neural and QDL architectures, followed by quantum-inspired optimization or feature-selection methods and quantum-kernel/conventional QML classifiers. Qiskit/IBM Quantum and PennyLane were the most frequently reported quantum software frameworks. However, most studies relied on simulators, classical quantum-inspired implementations, or unclear implementation settings, with limited real-hardware evaluation. CONCLUSIONS: QAI shows emerging potential for brain disorder analysis, particularly through hybrid quantum-classical learning, quantum neural architectures, quantum-kernel methods, and quantum-inspired optimization. Nevertheless, current evidence remains preliminary and requires larger datasets, subject-level and external validation, fair classical benchmarking, noise-resilient circuits, real quantum hardware evaluation, explainability, and clinical validation.

Q RadFusion: Hybrid Quantum Classical Radiogenomic Framework for Breast Cancer Diagnosis.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Breast cancer remains the most common cancer in women worldwide, with early and accurate diagnosis critical for patient survival. Radiogenomics integrates imaging phenotypes with genomic profiles, offering a pathway to precision diagnostics. However, existing classical machine learning models often struggle with the high dimensionality and heterogeneity of multimodal data, leading to issues in calibration and reproducibility. This study presents Q RadFusion, a hybrid quantum-classical framework designed to enhance breast cancer diagnosis by fusing mammography and genomics data. METHODS: Q RadFusion was implemented on two publicly available datasets: CBIS-DDSM (2,600 curated mammography cases, TCIA) and TCGA-BRCA (1,000 genomic profiles, GDC). Imaging preprocessing included bias-field correction, segmentation, and harmonization, while genomic data underwent normalization and imputation. Feature selection was performed using the Quantum Approximate Optimization Algorithm (QAOA), and features were mapped into a quantum Hilbert space using Variational Quantum Circuits (VQC). For multimodal fusion, ResNet encoded mammography features, and a Transformer encoded genomic features. Patient-level and site-held-out splits were used for evaluation. RESULTS: Q RadFusion achieved an AUC of 0.96 and accuracy of 94%, outperforming baselines including CNN-LSTM, ResNet + XGBoost, and multimodal Transformers. Ablation studies confirmed the contribution of quantum components, with optimal performance observed at circuit depth, qubits, and QAOA layers. The model also demonstrated improved calibration and ~ 80% fewer parameters compared to deep fusion networks. CONCLUSION: Q RadFusion demonstrates that hybrid quantum-classical radiogenomic integration can deliver accurate, reproducible, and clinically meaningful diagnostic support for breast cancer, with strong potential for future clinical translation.

AI In Leukemia Diagnostics: Complementing the Pathologist's Role.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is reshaping every stage of leukemia diagnostics, from digital morphology and multiparameter flow cytometry to next-generation sequencing, multi-omics analysis, and emerging computational frontiers such as quantum-inspired feature selection. This review outlines how contemporary AI tools can automate labor-intensive quantitation, flag diagnostically salient patterns, and standardize interpretation, while the pathologist or hematologist retains authority over validation, context-specific integration, and clinical decision-making. We present an illustrative "human-in-the-loop" workflow that embeds AI modules within current laboratory information systems, emphasizing points where expert oversight mitigates algorithmic bias and resolves discordant findings. We further map the validator-integrator role across morphology, flow cytometry, and genomic/multi-omic interpretation and provide practical training competencies and use cases for AI-assisted hematopathology. Beyond technical deployment, the article addresses the educational transformation required for sustainable adoption. Drawing on international competency frameworks, including the Digital Health Competencies in Medical Education Framework and recently proposed AI-specific Entrustable Professional Activities, we map core skills that future hematopathologists must master: data-science literacy, critical appraisal of AI outputs, and ethical governance. We highlight evaluated training models such as the Pathology Informatics Essentials for Residents curriculum, Stanford Artificial Intelligence in Machine and Imaging workshops, and College of American Pathologists bootcamps and propose integration strategies adaptable across resource settings. By pairing rigorous validation with targeted education, AI can elevate rather than eclipse the diagnostic role of the leukemia specialist, enabling more timely, reproducible, and personalized patient care.

Artificial intelligence-driven advancements in agricultural biotechnology.

The need for faster and more informative data processing for better decision-making is driving the adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) in the agricultural sector. Thanks to recent advancements in computer science and the increase in computational powers of modern computers, AI is not only augmenting traditional solutions, but also helping in developing novel solutions to existing challenging matters. AI-driven models have an exceptional ability to identify patterns and combine a diverse collection of data together and make inference. The increasing pressure on farmlands posed by the growing global population and climate change is lessening growth, yield, and productivity ultimately posing risk to food security worldwide. Incorporation of AI in agriculture has the potential to drive farming efficiency to new heights. This comprehensive review critically evaluates the evolution of AI in agricultural biotechnology from a theoretical concept to a global phenomenon. A comprehensive literature search was performed using major scientific databases, including PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Scopus, Lens and the Cochrane Library. In this review, we empirically demonstrate the fields advancement toward more capable AI systems and discuss the current applications of AI across crop improvement and precision agriculture such as crop improvement and genetic engineering, genomic selection and plant breeding, pest and disease detection, precision agriculture and smart farming, soil health and nutrient management, climate resilient crop development, livestock biotechnology, challenges and ethical considerations in AI based agricultural biotechnology. Furthermore, this review addresses the exponential growth of commercial intellectual property in the field and contrast it with academic publication outputs. Finally, we critically assess the ethical challenges impeding equitable adoption of AI including data sovereignty and digital divide, while projecting future frontiers involving quantum computing. This review will help build sustainable agricultural systems capable of adapting to climate change, contribute to the development of climate-resilient and high-yielding crops, and address global food security challenges.

Indirect evidence for a very fast recovery kinetics of chlorophyll-aII in spinach chloroplasts.

The 690 nm absorption change reflecting the turnover of the system-II-reaction center chlorophyll, Chl-aII (often referred to as P 680), has been investigated under different experimental conditions in spinach chloroplasts. A comparison was made with oxygen evolution and with absorption changes of Chl-aI measured at 703 nm, both indicating the number of electrons produced by system II. It was found: 1. The dependency on actinic flash intensity of the initial amplitudes of the measured 690 nm absorption change, deltaalpha0(Chl-aII) in Tris-washed chloroplasts is similar to that for the total amplutude of the 703 nm absorption change, deltaalpha0(Chl-aI) in normal chloroplasts, and can be described by an exponential function. On the other hand, deltaalphao(chl-aII) in normal chloroplasts exhibits a more complex biphasic dependency and much higher flash intensities are required for saturation. 3. Unver repetitive flash group excitation and in the presence of an ADRY(= acceleration of the deactivation reactions of the water-splitting enzyme system Y)-reagent the initial amplitude of the 690 nm absorption change oscillates in the same characteristic pattern as the oxygen evolution. 4. The initial amplitude of the 690 nm absorption change, deltaalpha0(Chl-aII), IN Tris-washed chloroplasts becomes significantly smaller (more than 50%) by the addition of system-II-electron donors (benzidine, p-phenylendiamine, tetraphenylboron), whereas the total amplitude of the 703 nm absorption change, detalalpha0)Chl-aI) increases 3-4-fold. In order to explain these results, the existance of a very fast reduction kinetics of Chl-aII+ is postulated, which is not detectable by our measuring equipment. The half time of this reaction is less than or equal to mus. Reaction centers with the very gast "undetected" Chl-aII+-reduction are photochemically transformed into slower one by double hit processes with a comparatively low quantum yield. Furthermore, it is inferred, that the dark recovery kinetics of Chl-aII is dependent on be charge accumulation state of the watersplitting enzyme system Y. This phenomenon is shown to explain also the oscillation pattern of delayed fluorescence. On the basis of the present results two alternative reaction schemes for the functional organization of the electron transport on the donor side of system II are discussed.
