QUBO-Driven Quantum Annealing: A Unified Cloud-Scale Framework for Resource Forecasting, Classification, and Deep Learning Training
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: This paper proposes an integrated QUBO-based quantum-annealing optimization framework for next-generation cloud computing. First, for resource-demand forecasting, we blend Autoregressive (AR) models with Quadratic Unconstrained Binary Optimization (QUBO) and solve the resulting problem via Simulated Annealing; monthly-scale tests reveal superior trend-capture accuracy compared with classical predictors. Second, we embed quantum optimization into Support Vector Machines by casting kernel selection and penalty-parameter tuning as QUBO instances; evaluations on the Iris benchmark—and on synthetically enlarged variants—show marked gains in both classification accuracy and training speed, especially under large-data regimes. Third, we extend the same paradigm to deep learning: a QUBO-formulated quantum-annealing routine optimizes weight initialization and layer-wise learning rates in convolutional networks for image classification, yielding higher top-1 accuracy and reduced wall-clock training time. Across all tasks the hybrid quantum-classical solver consistently outperforms its classical counterparts while maintaining linear scalability in cloud environments. These results show the practical potential of quantum - enhanced algorithms for resource prediction, classification, and deep learning, and pave the way for wider use of quantum technologies in cloud - based AI services.
