arXiv:2602. 06699v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We propose a variational quantum implementation of self-attention (QSA)-the core operation in transformers and large language models-which predicts future elements of a sequence by forming overlap-weighted combinations of past data.
arXiv:2504. 05336v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: A recurring weakness in quantum machine learning (QML) is that reported ``quantum advantages'' are seldom tested against a \emph{capacity-matched} classical control, leaving it unclear whether a gain comes from the quantum substrate or from the architectural change that accompanies it.

arXiv:2608. 06846v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We test whether a parameterized quantum circuit (PQC) improves a hybrid quantum-classical model's performance on classical datasets, using an interface-matched classical map as the control while holding all other components fixed.

arXiv:2604. 23931v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Variational quantum circuits (VQCs) are a leading approach to quantum machine learning on near-term devices, yet it remains unclear which circuit architecture yields the best accuracy-parameter trade-off on classical tabular data.
The paper demonstrates that quantum transformer blocks can be intrinsically interpretable by tracking quantum mutual information, entanglement entropy, and state fidelity across layers. Experiments on four synthetic tasks show that learned mutual information aligns with task structure, entanglement is essential for accuracy, and mutual information predicts prediction correctness. These findings are validated on IBM Quantum hardware, illustrating that quantum computation’s physics can provide observable interpretability signals.

arXiv:2608. 19306v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Given a set of input states, we consider the task of predicting the expectation value of a Pauli observable at the output of an unknown quantum evolution, using only a limited number of measurements.
arXiv:2606. 00045v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Classical continuous-space neural networks fundamentally struggle to lock into exact mathematical symmetries, such as modular arithmetic and non-commutative algebra.

arXiv:2608. 14691v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Sequence models are conventionally distinguished by their backbone, the mechanism that routes information across positions, such as attention or recurrence.
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.
