Quantum diffusion models provide a physics-consistent route to generative learning by formulating noising and denoising directly on quantum states. However, applying such models to classical high-dimensional data is constrained by the qubit cost of state encoding and the computational burden of simulating large density operators.

The paper introduces a scalable hybrid Quantum Diffusion Model for medical image analysis, leveraging a Discrete-Time Quantum Walk executed on a real quantum device to model forward diffusion dynamics. A classical learning model is employed for the backward denoising step, enabling the processing of large real-world medical data, including grayscale, RGB, and moderate-sized 3D volumes. The authors benchmark their quantum approach against a classical discrete-state diffusion model, demonstrating competitive generation performance across three state-of-the-art image generation metrics.

The paper presents a theoretical framework for approximating ratio-type functionals that arise in conditional generative modeling, specifically when the target density is expressed as a ratio of two kernel-based marginal densities. It proves that deep neural networks using the SignReLU activation can approximate these ratios with established L^p(Omega) bounds and convergence rates under standard regularity assumptions. Applying the framework to Denoising Diffusion Probabilistic Models, the authors construct a SignReLU-based estimator for the reverse process and derive bounds on the excess Kullback–Leibler risk, decomposing it into approximation and estimation errors to provide generalization guarantees for finite-sample training.
