 Abstract A method for analyzing the feature map for the kernel-based quantum classifier is developed; that is, we give a general formula for computing a lower bound of the exact training accuracy, which helps us to see whether the selected feature map is suitable for linearly separating the dataset. We show a proof of concept demonstration of this method for a class of 2-qubit classifier, with several 2-dimensional datasets. Also, a synthesis method, which combines different kernels to construct a better-performing feature map in a lager feature space, is presented.

 computational techniques, make machine learning widely applicable in every aspect of our lives such as education, healthcare, games, finance, transportation, energy, business, science, and engineering (Hastie et al. 2009; Alpaydin 2016). Among numerous developed machine learning methods, support vector machine (SVM) is a very established one which has become an overwhelmingly popular choice for data analysis (Boser and Guyon 1992). In SVM method, a nonlinear dataset is transformed via a feature map to another dataset and is separated by a hyperplane in the feature space, which can be effectively performed using the kernel trick. In particular, the Gaussian kernel is often used. Quantum computing is expected to speed-up the performance of machine learning through exploiting quantum mechanical properties including superposition, interference, and entanglement. As for the quantum classifier, a renaissance began in the past few years, w
