Most multimodal learning methods improve how heterogeneous representations are aligned and fused, while post-fusion enhancement remains less explored. We propose Parallel Quantum Feature Augmentation (PQFA), a hybrid quantum-classical framework that applies multiple shallow variational quantum circuits to fused multimodal features.

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.
