Open for submission

Quantum Machine Learning

In short

This is a Research and Innovation Action under Horizon Europe. The budget is €6 million for about 2 grants of €2 million to €3 million each. Deadline: 28 January 2027.

What the call wants to achieve

  • Integration of quantum computing into data pre-processing pipelines and learning workflows for data-heavy or computationally intensive tasks, demonstrating clear improvements in processing speed, computational complexity, modelling accuracy, and reduced sample requirements at scales achievable with NISQ-era devices,
  • Reliable and scalable Quantum Machine Learning (QML) models and algorithms, integrated with existing AI frameworks and pipelines, enabling faster data processing, improved prediction accuracy, and enhanced computational capabilities,
  • Validated quantum-enhanced AI methods demonstrating measurable improvements over classical baselines in terms of speed, accuracy, data efficiency, complexity, or scalability, supported by rigorous benchmarking and complexity analysis,
  • Robust, noise-aware QML techniques suitable for NISQ hardware , including error-mitigation strategies and algorithmic adaptations that improve reliability, performance, and reproducibility on real quantum processors,
