arXiv:2607. 14160v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Wildfire detection from satellite imagery is a semantic image segmentation problem that has proven to be difficult due to challenges such as class imbalance, feature complexity, and atmospheric interference.
arXiv:2604. 26675v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We investigate variational quantum classifiers (VQCs) for land-cover classification from multispectral satellite imagery, adopting a feature-map perspective in which the quantum circuit defines a nonlinear data embedding while the readout determines how this representation is exploited.
arXiv:2605. 27923v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The rapid growth of computer vision and increasingly complex image recognition tasks has exposed fundamental computational limitations of classical machine learning models, motivating the exploration of quantum computing as an emerging new paradigm.
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 compares classical and hybrid quantum machine learning models for a trigger-like binary classification task using CMS open data. Eight classical models (SVM, ANN, CNN, LSTM) and eight quantum counterparts are evaluated under identical preprocessing, data splits, and decision thresholds, with performance measured by accuracy, ROC‑AUC, F1‑score, precision, and recall. The best classical model is an artificial neural network (93.53 % accuracy, 0.9819 ROC‑AUC), while the best quantum model is a quantum convolutional network (90.89 % accuracy, 0.9731 ROC‑AUC), indicating that within an eight‑qubit budget the quantum models do not surpass the classical ones.

Large-scale Vision-Language Models have demonstrated impressive transfer learning capabilities across a wide range of tasks. For few-shot classification, we observe that VLMs exhibit a notable ability to filter candidate categories and thus achieve high Top-K accuracy.
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.
