We propose a method to optimize the correlation among convolutional neural network (CNN) features that are used as inputs to quantum neural network (QNN) to enhance image classification accuracy. Unlike prior approaches that employ orthogonal decomposition as preprocessing, we intentionally introduce correlated features that are more physically compatible with QNN.

QiT is a Quantum‑Inspired Transformer designed for visual recognition tasks. It replaces quantum neural network concepts with scalable classical operations: angle‑inspired encoding of image tokens, self‑attention over periodic features approximating quantum fidelity kernels, and gated multiplicative emulation of variational circuit interactions. The model achieves competitive performance on image‑classification benchmarks, matching a classical Transformer while avoiding the high runtime costs of simulated quantum models.

The paper systematically compares four classical machine learning models—SVM, ANN, CNN, and LSTM—with their quantum equivalents—QSVM, QNN, QCNN, and QLSTM—on simulated proton‑proton collision data from CERN Open Data. Classical models, especially CNN and LSTM, slightly outperform the quantum models under current hardware and dataset constraints, but quantum models achieve comparable accuracy with far fewer trainable parameters; for example, the QCNN matches a deep classical CNN using only four qubits and a depth‑three circuit. The study also shows that the regression task is non‑trivial for shallow polynomial fits, underscoring the relevance of the architectural comparison. whyItMatters":"The work provides a realistic benchmark of classical versus quantum machine learning performance on high‑energy physics data, highlighting parameter‑efficiency advantages of quantum models for near‑term devices."
