9th International Conference on
Quantum Techniques
in Machine Learning
16-21 November, Singapore
Theme for 2025:
AI for Quantum, Quantum for AI
Quantum Techniques in Machine Learning (QTML) is a leading international conference at the forefront of quantum science and machine learning. Held annually, it brings together researchers and industry experts to explore how quantum computing can transform learning, optimization, and data-driven discovery. Through a series of scientific talks and discussions, QTML fosters collaboration and advances research on the interplay between quantum mechanics and machine learning, from foundational theory to real-world applications.
QTML was first hosted in Verona, Italy (2017), then in Durban, South Africa (2018), Daejeon, South Korea (2019), virtual (2020, hosted by Zapata Computing), virtual (2021, hosted by RIKEN-AIP), Naples (2022), CERN (2023), Melbourne (2024). The ninth edition, QTML 2025, will be hosted by the Centre for Quantum Technologies in Singapore.
Congratulations to authors with papers accepted for QTML2025! See the accepted papers listed here.
