The paper introduces vFedProtoQNAS, a prototype‑guided personalized quantum neural architecture search method for virtual federated learning. It allows each client to independently design and train a device‑specific quantum neural network while avoiding parameter aggregation across structurally different models. Instead, clients share class‑wise latent prototypes, which are refined using global prototypes from the server to serve as federated semantic anchors, leading to a 3.70% accuracy improvement over FedAvg.

The paper proposes a quantum federated learning framework that extends parameter-space geometry to mixed states, using the Bures metric as a local preconditioner and the mean Uhlmann curvature to create an aggregation rule that down‑weights unreliable clients. It provides theoretical convergence guarantees and demonstrates through trapped‑ion quantum emulator experiments that the method retains high accuracy under device heterogeneity and outperforms standard federated averaging, which suffers under strong noise.
Quantum Reinforcement Learning for Cost and Delay Tradeoffs in Quantum Cloud Orchestration proposes QRLQ, a scheduling framework that integrates parameterised quantum circuits with a dueling double deep Q‑network to balance execution cost and delay in quantum‑as‑a‑service environments. Simulation results show QRLQ outperforms heuristic baselines, achieving 5‑11% lower mean cost and up to 82% lower mean delay while maintaining fidelity within 2% of a fidelity‑greedy policy. Compared to a classical deep reinforcement learning baseline, QRLQ delivers comparable performance with 72% fewer trainable parameters.
Quantum Neural Networks (QNNs) are a promising framework for quantum machine learning on near-term quantum devices, but their security risks remain insufficiently understood. Studies have shown that QNNs are vulnerable to backdoor attacks, yet existing quantum backdoors mostly rely on a fixed trigger shared by all poisoned inputs.

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.
