QML for Quantum Sensing under Measurement-Induced Information Loss

The paper investigates quantum machine learning (QML) for magnetic-field estimation using nitrogen‑vacancy (NV) centers in diamond. By framing sensing as a supervised regression task, the authors compare classical machine learning models trained on measurement‑based data with quantum kernel‑based models trained on pre‑measurement coherent quantum states. They find that QML performance improves markedly when coherent quantum‑state information is available, whereas changes in model complexity or learning paradigm have little effect, highlighting the need for tightly integrated quantum‑sensor and QML pipelines.

Classical and quantum kernel fusion for two-sample testing

The paper introduces MMD-FUSE, a two-sample test that remains effective on small datasets by fusing classical and quantum kernels. By combining the inductive biases of classical kernels with the expressive power of quantum kernels, the hybrid approach achieves higher test power, especially for small, high‑dimensional data. Experiments on synthetic and real clinical datasets confirm that the method consistently outperforms purely classical counterparts and adapts robustly to varied data characteristics.

A Multiclass Quantum Aligned Centroid Kernel

arXiv:2607. 19782v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Kernel methods are powerful tools in machine learning but commonly used full-Gram kernels face three key limitations: (1) quadratic scaling with training set size; (2) the use of fixed, non-trainable kernels; and (3) the absence of an intrinsic formulation for multiclass classification.

Parameterized Quantum Circuits as Feature Maps: Representation Quality and Readout Effects in Multispectral Land-Cover Classification

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.
