Machine learning has blossomed in recent decades and has become essential in many fields. It significantly solved some problems in particle physics—particle reconstruction, event classification, etc. However, it is now time to break the limitation of conventional machine learning with quantum computing. A supportvector machine algorithm with a quantum kernel estimator (QSVM-Kernel) leverages high-dimensional quantum state space to identify a signal from backgrounds. In this study, we have pioneered employing this quantum machine learning algorithm to study the e+ e − → ZH process at the Circular Electron-Positron Collider (CEPC), a proposed Higgs factory to study electroweak symmetry breaking of particle physics. Using 6 qubits on quantum computer simulators, we optimised the QSVMKernel algorithm and obtained a classification performance similar to the classical support-vector machine algorithm. Furthermore, we have validated the QSVM-Kernel algorithm using 6-qubits on quantum computer hardware from both IBM and Origin Quantum: the classification performances of both are approaching noiseless quantum computer simulators. In addition, the Origin Quantum hardware results are similar to the IBM Quantum hardware within the uncertainties in our study. Our study shows that state-of-the-art quantum computing technologies could be utilised by particle physics, a branch of fundamental science that relies on big experimental data.  \nKeywords: Quantum computing, Machine Learning, Particle Physics, Higgs Factory  \n1. Introduction  \nThe discovery of the Higgs boson [1, 2] by the ATLAS and CMS experiments at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in 2012 was a significant milestone in particle physics.  \n2  \nIt confirmed the fundamental particle spectrum of the Standard Model and opened a new window to refine our understanding of particle physics. The Higgs boson is needed to break the electroweak symmetry in the Standard Model. Since then, the LHC experiments have performed extensive studies on the Higgs boson properties: clues for new physics would emerge if any measurement disagrees with the Standard Model prediction. However, there is no significant hint of new physics has been found to date. Higgs factories [3, 4, 5, 6] based on lepton colliders have been proposed to perform more precise measurements of the Higgs boson properties and study electroweak symmetry breaking of particle physics. The Circular Electron-Positron Collider (CEPC), presented by Chinese scientists, is one such collider that acts as a Higgs factory. It will be located in a tunnel with a circumference of approximately 100 km colliding electron-positron pairs at a centre-of-mass energy of up to 240 GeV, upgradable to 360 GeV.  \nMachine learning has enjoyed widespread success in detector simulation, particle reconstruction and data analyses of experimental particle physics and dramatically enhances the ability to achieve physics discovery. For instance, machine learning algorithms are used in ATLAS and CMS experiments to help separate signals from backgrounds in the observation of the Higgs boson production in association with atop
