QTrans is a quantum transformer designed for small‑scale binary sentiment classification. It constructs query, key, and value features using parameterized quantum circuits and derives attention coefficients from Gaussian distances between quantum measurements. The model incorporates a quantum feed‑forward network, residual connections, and layer normalization, achieving higher accuracies on MR, CR, and MPQA datasets compared to classical baselines.

Hybrid Variational Quantum-Classical Framework with Adaptive Weighting and Efficiency Assessment introduces Sim‑HVQC, a hybrid deep quantum neural network that integrates an adaptive, parameter‑free SimAM weighting module with classical feature extraction to retain class‑discriminative information before encoding into a Variational Quantum Circuit. Unlike prior work limited to binary classification, this framework is trained and evaluated on multiple multi‑class datasets such as MNIST, KMNIST, Fashion‑MNIST, and EMNIST. The study highlights reproducibility, parameter efficiency, and interpretability through multi‑seed evaluation, parameter analysis, and latent/quantum feature inspection, with source code publicly available on GitHub.

The paper demonstrates that a small quantum computer of polylogarithmic size can achieve large‑scale classification and dimension reduction on massive classical data, while any classical machine achieving the same performance would need exponentially larger size. It shows that classical machines even if exponentially larger still require superpolynomially more samples and time. The authors provide evidence from real‑world applications such as single‑cell RNA sequencing and movie review sentiment analysis, achieving four to six orders of magnitude reduction in size with fewer than 60 logical qubits.

The paper introduces a compact, NISQ‑compatible quantum transformer for synthetic QNLP sequence modelling. It replaces classical attention and feed‑forward layers with variational quantum encoder blocks, connector circuits, decoder blocks, and a two‑qubit measurement readout, while preserving the autoregressive next‑token interface. The authors evaluate several variants on deterministic and lexicographic grammar‑generation tasks, finding that the quantum models can learn nontrivial grammar structure but are less accurate and stable than a compact classical transformer baseline.

We propose a compact NISQ-compatible quantum transformer architecture for synthetic QNLP sequence modelling. The model preserves the autoregressive next-token interface of a classical transformer, but...

The paper introduces Neural Fourier Surrogates (NFS), a stochastic classical neural network that learns coefficients over a finite Fourier series support similar to quantum neural networks (QNNs). By testing on tabular benchmark datasets, NFS demonstrates competitive classification performance against established classical baselines and data‑reuploading QNNs. The authors also compare the learned Fourier spectra of QNNs and NFS on synthetic data, positioning NFS as a natural classical baseline for evaluating QNN performance.
